The 2018-19 ICCAC Division I Women's All-Region players have been selected, with the Iowa Western Women's team snagging three First Team selections and earning Player of the Year and Coach of the Year Honors!

Kiara Dallmann, the 2019 ICCAC Division I Women's Basketball Player of the Year, leads this year's squad with 13.8 points per game, averaging 61.9% from the field, ranking fourth in the nation. The sophomore started all 27 games she has played thus far this season and has also contributed 7.3 rebounds and nearly two assists per game.

Dallmann received First Team honors for the second straight season.

Redshirt freshman, Aubriana Noti, was second in points per game for the Reivers averaging 11 per game. The Colorado Springs native was the team leader in rebounds, averaging 9.4 per game. Noti averaged shot 53.4% from the field, third on the team.

The final First Team selection was the only first year player for Coach Lindsey Vande Hoef's squad.  Freshman Sommer Blakemore, made an immediate impact during her first season. Blakemore averaged 9.7 points per game and led the ICCAC Division I women's basketball ranks in both assists (95) and three-point field goal makes (56). On the year she averaged 4.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game.

The Reivers also claimed 2 spots on the honorable mention list, with Sophomores De'Ayra Davis and Zhan'e Williams each named to the squad.  Davis, an Omaha native, transferred to Iowa Western for her Sophomore season and has played in all 31 games for the Reivers, averaging 10 points per game.  Williams, in her second season out of Jersey City, New Jersey, scored nearly nine points per outing in 28 games played.

For the second straight year, Lindsey Vande Hoef claimed ICCAC Coach of the Year honors.  "I love the grit and the guts that this team has shown through a long season of ups and downs.
", Vande Hoef said, "We had to overcome losing All-American Naomie Alnatas early in the season, but have responded beautifully and the energy and willingness to compete day in and day out are very high right now.  We've battled one of the toughest schedules in the nation and are better prepared for it."

In Vande Hoef's four seasons at the helm, she's led the Reivers to a 97-27 record with two Region XI Tournament Championships and one District K title.

The Reivers will face Three Rivers on Friday in Poplar Bluff, Missouri at 7:00 pm in the District K Championship.  The winner automatically advances to the NJCAA National Tournament in Lubbock, TX, March 18-23, 2019.
