Thorman-McKey earned First-Team All-Region 16 honors. Reed was named Second-Team All-Region 16.
Thorman-McKey started 28 of 29 games and led the Lady Roadrunners and finished 30th in the country in scoring with 18.8 points. Thorman-McKey averaged 1.7 steals (tied for first on the team), 9.4 rebounds (second on the team), shot 43.5 percent from the field (second on the team).

"They were our one-two punch all year long," said Lady Roadrunners Basketball Head Coach Kevin Bucher. "Nadia was very consistent and Darlisha came back like gangbusters after being off for a while. Both of those student-athletes helped us tremendously in scoring and rebounding. Both of them played extremely hard even in practices. They would always come in and play hard. Both of those players wanted to compete and do well. It is fitting that they both earned All-Region. It was very well deserved."
