It’s been a pretty fun and exciting year for the Ohio State women’s basketball team thus far throughout the 2023-2024 season. One reason for that is senior guard Jacy Sheldon, who made the decision to come back for one more season in the Scarlet and Gray.
She’s been a difference-maker her entire career, but now she’s getting more recognition that she’s probably gotten so far. For more proof, look no further than the latest Wooden late season watchlist that was released on Tuesday. Sheldon is one of 20 names that made the cut and will still be in consideration for the award that goes to the best women’s college basketball player annually.
So far this season, Sheldon is averaging a team-leading 17.6 points per contest to go along with 3.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 2.2 steals per contest in over 33 minutes per game.

The Wooden Award recipient will be announced on Tuesday, April 4 on ESPN. We’ll keep an eye on where Sheldon is in all of the shenanigans leading up to that date.
