ATLANTA - Junior Addisyn Banks has been named an NCAA Division III All-American Honorable Mention by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) on Thursday, becoming the third player in program history to earn the award, joining Terese Greene and Laura Johnson. Greene earned the award in 2025, while Johnson was the program's first honoree back in 1985.

Banks led the Hornets in scoring with 18.1 points per game, while also averaging 8.1 rebounds per game and 3.6 assists per game. The junior led the team in steals, averaging 2.3 per game.

The Nokesville, Virginia, native played in all 28 games for the Hornets, with 27 starts, helping the team earn an at-large bid into the 2026 NCAA Division III Women's Basketball Championship Tournament.

The guard hit double-digits in points in 26 of her 28 games, with nine games with at least 20 points. Her season-high came at Roanoke on February 14 with a 32-point performance.

Banks notched nine double-doubles this season, with a season-high 14 rebounds twice this year. The first 14 rebound game was against Randolph-Macon back in January, with the second coming in the season finale against Trine in the NCAA Tournament.

Earlier this week, the guard was named All-Region VI First Team by d3hoops.com and is eligible to earn All-American honors from the publication later this week as well.

The junior was second in the ODAC in scoring, seventh in rebounding, fourth in three-point field goal percentage, third in assists, sixth in steals, and sixth in minutes played. The rankings in the league helped Banks earn All-ODAC first team last month. Banks also earned four ODAC Player of the Week awards this year, with three defensive nods and one on the offensive side of the ball.
