Horn, a senior Basking Ridge, N.J., is a two-way star that features as the engine behind Washington and Lee's offense and a defensive stalwart that can guard any position on the floor. The now three-time All-ODAC selection is third in the ODAC in assists (88), fourth in scoring (13.5) and defensive rebounds (138), and seventh in points scored (297) and rebounding (7.3). She has scored in double figures in 17-of-22 games played with three double-doubles. Horn matched a career-high with 23 points scored in a win at Bridgewater in late January, set a new personal-high for rebounds with 15 boards in a triumph over Lynchburg on January 15, a tied a career-best with 10 assists in a win at Virginia Wesleyan on January 8.

St. Cyr, a senior from Temple Hills, Md., is not only a strong facilitator for Shenandoah's offense as its point guard, but she routinely draws the toughest defensive assignment in SU's matchups. Her efforts have helped the Hornets post the league's best opponent field goal percentage at 33.2-percent. Statistically, St. Cyr has registered 42 steals and averages 5.8 rebounds per game. She has pulled down 113 defensive boards, which is the ninth-most in the league. She has also blocked 11 shots.

Clancy is in her 10th season guiding the Generals women's program and her 11th year as a collegiate head coach. This is her first ODAC top coaching honor. This season, Clancy has led Washington and Lee to the top of the ODAC standings with a 16-2 league record and a 19-5 overall mark. W&L is ranked third in Division III's Region VI in the rankings published on February 13. The Generals are the top seed entering the ODAC Tournament as they seek their second conference trophy. Entering the postseason, Clancy owns career records of 160-110 (.593) overall and 138-104 (.570) at W&L.

Crenshaw-Patterson, a first-year from Newport News, Va., stepped in and quickly became a key component to Randolph's success with the WildCats' earning the fifth seed in the ODAC Tournament and advancing to Salem for just the second time in program history. Crenshaw-Patterson has played in 22 of the WildCats 23 games with 10 starts. She is averaging 12.9 points and 6.0 rebounds per game. She has scored in double figures 15 times with five 20-point games including a season-best 25 points with eight boards, four assists, and four steals in a 76-45 win over Shenandoah -- their ODAC quarterfinal opponent -- on January 12. Crenshaw-Patterson has collected three double-doubles. Defensively, she has racked up 31 steals and 10 blocked shots.

Davis, a senior from Knoxville, Tenn., pairs this award with an All-ODAC Second Team appointment. Davis stands out on and off the floor for Lynchburg. In the classroom, she maintains a 3.96 grade point average as a biomedical science major with minors in chemistry and sports medicine. Three times she has earned Academic All-District from CoSIDA -- twice from basketball and once as a track & field student-athlete. She was joined on this season's All-District list by Shenandoah's Weinel. Davis has twice been named the Lynchburg Female Academic Athlete of the Year and is a three-time honoree on the All-ODAC Academic Team. She is a member of the National Society of Leadership and Success. She is active with the Lynchburg campus ministry and is currently applying to medical school.

On the court, the 2021 ODAC Tournament Most Outstanding Player is ranked fifth in NCAA Division III with 155 assists. Davis is fourth in the ODAC in points scored (323), field goals made (117-262), free throws made (84-116), and steals (55). She is eighth in scoring at 12.9 points per game. She is now a two-time All-ODAC selection.
