ADA — Ohio Northern senior Brynn Serbin (Pittsburgh, Pa./North Allegheny) was named to the 2023 Women's Basketball All-America Second Team by D3hoops.com.

The D3hoops.com All-America team is chosen by D3hoops.com staff in consultation with All-Region voting results from players nominated for All-Region. The list is comprised of 25 student-athletes with five selected to each of a first through fifth team.

Serbin was selected as the D3hoops.com Region 7 Player of the Year as a member of the All-Region First Team earlier this month.

Monday's accolade is Serbin's second All-American honor of 2023, as she was also selected to the 10-member Women's Basketball Coaches Association NCAA Division III Coaches' All-America team.

The WBCA also named Serbin to its 2023 NCAA Division III Women's Collegiate All-Star Team. She was one of 20 senior women's basketball players from across the country selected to the team.

With Serbin leading the charge, the Polar Bears finished with a record of 25-5 this season, including a 15-3 mark in Ohio Athletic Conference play. Northern won both the OAC Regular Season championship and OAC Tournament title en route to earning the 10th NCAA Tournament bid in program history.

Ranked No. 16 nationally, the Polar Bears hosted first- and second-round games in the NCAA Tournament, defeating No. 25 Berea (Ky.) and Wisconsin-Oshkosh before falling at No. 2 Transylvania (Ky.) in the Sweet 16.

Serbin averaging 14.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.7 steals per game in 2022-23. She ranked second in the Ohio Athletic Conference in scoring average and led the conference with 134 assists and 81 steals, both of which are program records for a single season. Her 429 points in 2022-23 rank fifth all-time at ONU for a single season.

The 2019-20 OAC Freshman of the Year is now a four-time All-OAC selection after earning a spot on the First Team this season as the conference's Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year.

A three-time OAC Player of the Week this season, Serbin was also named the OAC Tournament MVP after averaging 15 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.0 steals per game in wins over Otterbein and Marietta.

Serbin is ONU's all-time leader in career steals with 223 and ranks third in program history with 295 career assists. She ranks fifth all-time with 132 made 3-pointers in her career and has 913 career points, which is 13 shy of breaking into the top 20 on the program's all-time list in that category.
