Ole Miss senior forward Cotie McMahon continues to bring in the All-American honors with the latest nod coming from the Associated Press on Wednesday.

McMahon was included in the AP’s annual All-American list for women’s basketball, landing on the honorable mention team. It’s the fourth All-American honor McMahon has received for her work this season. Other honors have come from USA Today (honorable mention), The Sporting News (second team), and USBWA (honorable mention).

McMahon, in her first season at Ole Miss after transferring from Ohio State, holds team highs in points (19.9) and assists (3.0). Up for the Wooden Award – handed annually to the game’s top player – she adds 5.3 rebounds across 30.5 minutes per contest. During SEC play, she averaged 21 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 3.6 assists across 33.4 minutes per contest.

McMahon was recently named SEC Newcomer of the Year and to the All-SEC first team, as well. With the most recent All-American nods, she’s now been named an All-American for three consecutive seasons.

McMahon and the Rebels will play in the upcoming NCAA Tournament as a No. 5 seed, squaring off against No. 12 seed Gonzaga in Friday’s opening round. Tipoff from Minneapolis is set for 2:30 p.m. CT. The game will air on ESPN2 and Q105.
