Gillyan Landis was a key piece in Linfield's turnaround season that saw the Wildcats (10-15, 6-10 NWC) win nine more games than they did a season ago, including five in Northwest Conference play.
 
For the second straight season since joining the program, the sophomore was named an honorable mention to the 2022-23 All-NWC Women's Basketball Team, released Tuesday.
 
Landis finished the season tied for 13^th in the NWC with 10.5 points per game. She ranked No. 6 with 6.7 rebounds per game to go with 20 assists, 11 steals and 17 blocks. Her 49 percent shooting from the field and 78.3 percent from the free throw line both rank in the conference's top 10.
 
The Yakima, Washington, native scored in double figures 12 times and grabbed 10 or more rebounds on seven occasions. She dropped a season-high 20 points against Northwest (Wash.) on Dec. 28 and Lewis & Clark on Feb. 11.
 
Landis registered four double-doubles in 2022-23, bringing her career total to five. She turned in a double-double of 10 points and 19 rebounds against Cal Lutheran on Dec. 17. The 19 rebounds set a new career high and are tied for No. 4 in the program's single-game record book.
 
Whitman's Korin Baker was named the NWC Player of the Year while the Blues' Michelle Ferenz earned her second straight NWC Coach of the Year award and sixth overall. Sydney Reisner of Pacific Lutheran was tabbed as the NWC Rookie of the Year.
