RICHMOND, Va. – Stony Brook women's basketball's Zaida Gonzalez (Second Team), Breauna Ware (Third Team), and Shamarla King (Dean Ehlers Leadership Award) earned postseason recognition, as announced by the conference office on Tuesday afternoon.
 
Gonzalez averaged 16.3 ppg throughout the regular season, the third-best mark in the league. She led the Seawolves with 456 total points, posting 20 or more points on eight occasions. The senior guard broke the single game program record with 37 points against Charleston in mid-January and eclipsed 1,000 career points against Delaware three games ago. She set new career-highs in minutes played, points, field goals and three pointers made, rebounds, and steals while ranking in the top three for Stony Brook in points, rebounds, assists, and steals. The West Palm Beach, Fla. native earned both CAA and MBWA Player of the Week honors this season.
 
Ware has played in 28 games with 24 starts for the Seawolves this season, registering double-digit points in 22 contests. The redshirt sophomore from Queens, N.Y. has scored in double-figures in 15 of her last 18 outings, including a career-high 30 points at both Campbell and Hofstra. Her 408 total points on the season and 14.4 points per game both rank in the top 10 in the CAA. She leads the Stony Brook squad with 60 assists (2.1 per game) and a team-high .434 percent shooting from the field.
 
King was named the Dean Ehlers Leadership Award recipient, exemplifying and embodying "the highest standards of leadership, integrity and sportsmanship in conjunction with her academic and athletic achievement." The graduate guard shined for the Seawolves with 9.5 points per game and 6.9 rebounds per game this season. Off the court, she spent time volunteering with The Stony Brook Center for Civil Justice and the Sunshine Prevention Outreach Center.
 
Gonzalez, Ware, King and the No. 12 Seawolves get back on the hardwood on Wednesday, March 12 at 2 p.m. in the CAA First Round against No. 13 Hampton.
