Miller earns 2nd Team All-Region honors

SPOKANE, Wash. – Alaska Anchorage senior Nicci Miller was recognized as one of the top 10 players in the NCAA Division II West Region on Wednesday when she was selected a 2009-10 Daktronics All-West Region Second Team all-star.

Miller, a 5-9 forward, was also named First Team All-Great Northwest Athletic Conference on Tuesday after leading the Seawolves with 14.0 points and 6.3 rebounds per game. The Denver native (Hinkley HS/Central Arizona College) ranks sixth in the league in scoring and third with 2.1 steals per game, helping the Seawolves to a 23-4 overall record and a third-place (13-3) finish in the GNAC.

In November, Miller was the Most Outstanding Player at the Carrs/Safeway Great Alaska Shootout, leading UAA to the title over Div. I clubs Coastal Carolina and Cincinnati, and she has been a two-time GNAC Player of the Week.

The Daktronics team is selected from among the 30 teams in the West Region and is chosen by a vote of the region's sports information directors.

The Seawolves are in Seattle this week to play in the NCAA Div. II West Regional Championships. Fourth-seeded and nationally 14th-ranked UAA will face 5th-seeded Cal Poly Pomona on Friday at 4:30 p.m. AST at Royal Brougham Pavilion.
