Walker and Roberson Named to LSWA Teams

Walker picks up first team selection, Roberson named to second team

RUSTON, La. – The Louisiana Tech women's basketball season has been in the books since March, but the post-season honors continue to roll in for the two of the Techsters' squad.
 
Keiunna Walker and Anna Larr Roberson have been named to the 2021-22 LSWA Women's Basketball team, which was announced earlier today. 

LSU senior guard Khayla Pointer was named the State Player of the Year for the second year in a row and LSU head coach Kim Mulkey earned the State Coach of the Year. McNeese's Kalli Chamberlin was voted the state Freshman of the Year while Tulane's Moon Ursin was voted the Newcomer of the Year.
 
Walker, an All-Conference USA first-team selection from Lonoke, Ark., was named to the first team while Roberson, the Ruston native and second-team All-Conference USA selection, was named to the second team.
 
Walker led the Techsters in scoring this past season with 18.9 ppg on 42.8 percent shooting while scoring in double figures in 32 of her 33 games. She scored 20 or more points in 14 outings, including a career-high 32-point effort at UTEP. 
 
Walker enjoyed a milestone season for the Techsters this year surpassing career marks of 1,000 points, 100 steals, 100 assists, 100 charges taken, and 100 games played. 
 
On Jan. 9 against Southern Miss, she became the 43rd member of the 1,000-point club and currently sits at No. 27 on the all-time Techsters scoring list with 1,403 career points passing the likes of Hall-of-Famer Teresa Weatherspoon.
 
Walker also registered the fourth triple-double in program history, joining Tasha Williams, Shantel Hardison, and Angela with a 27-point, 15-rebound, 10-assist outing against Rice in a double-overtime thriller. It was the first 25-15-10 stat line in Techsters' history.  
 
The Lonoke native was also one of the best in the country this season at getting to the free-throw line finishing the regular season with 174 free-throw makes and 228 attempts. Her 174 makes led C-USA while her 228 attempts ranked her second. Both categories placed her in the top 15 in the NCAA. 
 
Walker was named the LSWA Player of the Week four times this season, the conference USA Player of the Week on Feb. 28, and was named to the 2022 Conference USA All-Tournament Team. 
 
Roberson finished the season averaging 15.2 ppg and 8.5 rpg while posting nine double-doubles. Her points per game ranked third in the conference, while her rebounds and double-doubles ranked second.
 
Roberson shot 52.0 percent from the floor, good for No. 3 in C-USA and was second in the league in free-throw percentage at 83.8 percent. 
 
The Cedar Creek product scored in double figures in 28 of her 32 games this season, including her historical career-high performance of 44 points in the double-overtime win against Rice on 20-28 shooting. Her 44-point night is the fifth-highest single-game scoring output in program history, while her 20 made field goals tied a program record set in 1975 by Belinda Jones.
 
Roberson was also named Conference USA and LSWA Player of the Week Monday, Mar. 7, after averaging 25 points and seven rebounds in two wins over ODU and UAB. She also picked up a Conference USA All-Tournament selection back in March. 
 
Walker and Roberson helped anchor one of the best defenses in the conference that allowed a fifth-best 60.2 ppg and finished in the top five in turnovers forced (18.8), and top six in steals (8.2).
 
After an 0-4 start to league play, the Techsters finished the regular season with an 11-3 mark, including winning their final four games to clinch C-USA's West Division crown with a win over UAB in Ruston, earning an automatic bid to the 2022 WNIT.
