CNU’s Abby Asuncion and UMW’s Jordan Lyons nominated for 2024 NCAA Woman of the Year

Christopher Newport University's Abby Asuncion and the University of Mary Washington's Jordan Lyons are the Coast-To-Coast Athletic Conference nominees for 2024 NCAA Woman of the Year award.

The NCAA Woman of the Year program was established in 1991 and honors the academic achievements, athletics excellence, community service and leadership of graduating female college athletes from all three divisions. To be eligible, a nominee must have competed and earned a varsity letter in an NCAA-sponsored sport and must have earned her undergraduate degree by Summer 2024.

The Woman of the Year Selection Committee, made up of representatives from the NCAA membership, will choose the Top 30 honorees — 10 from each division — from the conference-level nominees. The Top 30 honorees will be announced in the fall.  The selection committee will then determine the top three honorees in each division from the Top 30 to comprise the group of nine finalists, later in the fall.

From those nine finalists, the NCAA Committee on Women's Athletics will choose the 2024 NCAA Woman of the Year. The honorees will be celebrated at the Woman of the Year Award Presentation at the NCAA Convention in Nashville in January.
