Michaela Onyenwere was named to the All-Pac-12 team.

SAN FRANCISCO – Sophomore Michaela Onyenwere was named All-Pac-12, while senior Kennedy Burke and redshirt freshman Lindsey Corsaro were also recognized by the conference on Tuesday, as the league revealed the 15-member All-Pac-12 women's basketball team, as well as the five-member All-Defensive squad and five-member All-Freshman team. The teams were selected in a vote of the league's 12 coaches.
 
While Onyenwere earned a spot on the All-Pac-12 team, Burke was named All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention and also reaped All-Defensive plaudits. Corsaro was named to the All-Freshman team.
 
A native of Aurora, Colo., Onyenwere has been one of the most explosive players this season, averaging 18.2 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game. In Pac-12 play, Onyenwere posted 20.4 points per contest and connected on 18 3-pointers. She had 14 20-plus point games during the 2018-19 regular season, highlighted by eight games with 25 or more. She matched a career-high 29 points three times and pulled down a career-best 13 rebounds, twice. She currently ranks second in the Pac-12 and fourth in the country in offensive rebounds per game with 4.0, and she shot 83.2 percent from the free throw line, ranking fourth in the league.
 
Burke has enjoyed a standout senior campaign thus far, averaging 14.8 points per game and 5.9 rebounds. She led the team in steals with 56 and ranked fifth in the Pac-12 with 1.9 per contest. On Feb. 22, Burke scored a career-high 29 points at No. 2 Oregon, helping the Bruins pull off the biggest upset in program history. She climbed into the top 20 (No. 18) on UCLA's all-time scoring list and ranks sixth in the Pac-12 in field goal percentage (49.3). During Pac-12 play, Burke scored in double figures in all but two of UCLA's 18 games, helping the Bruins finish fourth overall at 12-6. 
 
Corsaro returned to full strength in 2018-19 and was rewarded for her consistent play, finding a spot on the All-Freshman team. Overall, Corsaro averaged 7.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and nearly three dimes per outing. In conference play, she started all but one of UCLA's 18 games, posting double-figure scoring in five contests, including a career-high-tying 15 points vs. USC on Jan. 20.
 
UCLA earned the No. 4 seed in the Pac-12 Tournament, set to take place March 7-10 in Las Vegas. The Bruins will play either No. 5 Arizona State or No. 12 Colorado on Friday at 11:30 a.m. (PT).
