Former Palo Verde standout Sydni Stallworth named NJCAA All-American

Sydni Stallworth (Andy Morales/AllSportsTucson.com)

Former Palo Verde standout Sydni Stallworth earned All-American status for the second time. Stallworth was named National Player of the Week in January and was the ACCAC D-II Player of the Year.

The Pima guard is headed to Alaska-Anchorage. More on her incredible career HERE.

This list was updated all year in an effort to recognize all former local prep stars who had gone on to achieve either academic and/or athletic awards at the next level. These are not high school awards but college and professional awards. NOT CHAMPIONSHIPS. If you are aware of anything I have missed along the way, please let me know.
