Mia Parkin
PACWEST Rookie of the Year
First-Team All-Star
The Australian international from Adelaide compiled a eye-opening rookie campaign, leading the Blues in scoring with 15 points per game and leading the conference in field goal percentage at 49.7 per cent. Her Rookie of the Year award makes it back-to-back for the Blues with Hnizdilova earning the honour in 2024.
Barcha Hnizdilova
Second-Team All-Star
Following an impressive rookie campaign, the Czech international was again an engine for the Blues at both ends of the court. Her 13.5 points per game was good enough for fifth in the league while her 9.7 rebounds per game was fourth.
Kash Lang
First-Team All-Star
The all-everything guard once again led the Blues with 15.1 points per game, earning a spot on the PACWEST First Team for the second straight year. The Idaho product was also top-10 in the league in assists and steals.
Damein Coleman
Second-Team All-Star
PACWEST Defensive Player of the Year
Coleman came as advertised, transferring to Capilano this season from CBC. His defensive presence earned him his second-consecutive conference Defensive Player of the Year Award. The native of Baltimore averaged close to two blocks per game and led the Blues in rebounds and steals while also scoring 9.1 points per game.
Ajaypal Hayer
PACWEST All-Rookie Team
Hayer joined the Blues for the second half of the season and began contributing right away. Coming off the bench to provide productive minutes, the Surrey native showed the ability to heat up quickly and score from beyond the arc. He scored in double-digits in five of the 12 regular-season games he played.
