Stanford's Haley Jones named 2022 Pac-12 Women's Basketball Player of the Year

Stanford's Haley Jones was named the 2022 Pac-12 Women's Basketball Player of the Year, presented by Nextiva. The conference-record 19th Pac-12 Player of the Year from Stanford, Jones is the first Cardinal to win the honor since Chiney Ogwumike in 2013-14. Eleventh in the league in scoring (12.5), second in rebounding (7.9) and fifth in assists (3.6), the 2021 Final Four Most Outstanding Player is one of three Power 5 players in the country averaging those numbers this season (Caitlin Clark – Iowa; Jordan Horston – Tennessee). She has scored in double figures in 18 games and put together eight double-doubles, including the conference’s 54th all-time triple-double with 17 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists against Portland on Nov. 16. Among a number of big performances, Jones put up 18 points, 19 rebounds and six assists in a victory over No. 7 Tennessee in Knoxville on Dec. 18, joining Ogwumike as the only Division I players this century with that line in an AP top-10 road matchup.
