Maggie Lucas has had quite the season, and it’s not over yet. After putting up 21 points in Sunday’s big win against Michigan which clinched part of the Big Ten Title, all Lucas and the Lady Lions must do now is beat Minnesota on Thursday to win the title outright.

Lucas has been making a name for herself since she arrived at Penn State. In her first year as a Lion she earned four awards including Big Ten Freshman of the Year and Big Ten Sixth Player of the Year.

These days, as anyone that is even somewhat familiar with Penn State Women’s Basketball knows, Lucas isn’t coming off the bench anymore. With a bigger spotlight, Lucas is attracting bigger awards. In 2012-2013 she has been on the Preseason All-Big Ten First Team, the Naismith Trophy Early Season Watch List, the Wade Trophy Watch List, and the 2013 Wooden Award Midseason Watch List.

While Maggie Lucas has had no problem making it happen for the Lady Lions, this time around she needs the fans’ help as she is a finalist for the Premier Player of Women’s College Basketball Trophy. You can vote for the award here, and at the end of February the top five finalists will be placed into a new poll, so make sure you vote by the end of the month!
