Aicha Coulibaly named Second Team All-SEC

For the second year in a row, Auburn junior Aicha Coulibaly got a spot in the All-SEC Second Team as the SEC announced the awards this past Tuesday. 

Coulibaly finished with a 41.6% field goal percentage and led the Tigers in scoring with 16.4 per game, as well as leading in rebounds with 6.3 per game. 

12 was the season high for field goal made the junior and was set by against Ole Miss on January 22. Coulibaly also picked up the game highs for assists and steals with seven assists against Georgia on February 23rd, and six steals against Alabama State on November 20th.
