It's awards season again, which means it's time for Kelsey Mitchell to add to her trophy case. Ohio State's leading scorer was named a second-team AP All-American on Monday afternoon.

Mitchell led the Buckeyes in scoring for the third-straight season, averaging a Big Ten-best 22.6 points a game, good for seventh in the nation. Earlier this season, she reached 2,000 career points faster than any player in NCAA history and currently sits third on Ohio State's all-time scoring list despite only playing three seasons.
This is Mitchell's second major honor of the season as she was already named the Big Ten Player of the Year earlier this month.
