Georgia’s Nicholson named All-SEC by league coaches

ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia fifth-year senior Javyn Nicholson, who ranks third in the Southeastern Conference with 15 double-doubles this season, has been named to the All-SEC second team, it was announced Tuesday.

The Lawrenceville, Ga., native has turned in one of the best seasons by an individual player in school history. She is the first Lady Bulldog since Janet Harris in 1983 to record eight-straight double-doubles and is one of just four conference players this year to rank in the top-10 of the league in both scoring and rebounding.

Nicholson is averaging 16.6 points and 8.9 rebounds per contest and has scored in double figures in 28 of 29 games. She has also paced the Lady Bulldogs in scoring in a team-high 15 games during the 2023-24 campaign.

The Collins Hill prep star came to Georgia in 2019 and has thrived under Coach ABE’s leadership. After averaging 4.5 points and 4.0 rebounds per game in her first three collegiate seasons, Nicholson tripled her points per game to 13.1 and doubled her rebounds per contest to 8.0 over the last two years.

Nicholson is the 30th Georgia player to be named second-team All-SEC by league coaches.
