AMES, Iowa – Iowa State senior forward Hallie Christofferson has been named a Senior Class Award First-Team All-American. Connecticut’s Stefanie Dolson earned the 2013-14 Senior CLASS Award.

Earlier this season, Christofferson was named a finalist for the award, which focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.

To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence – classroom, community, character and competition.

Christofferson, a Hamlin, Iowa native, earned first-team All-Big 12 honors for the second time in her career after averaging 18.4 points and 7.2 rebounds per game. She was an Academic All-Big 12 First-Team honoree for the third-consecutive year.

This is the second-consecutive year Iowa State has had a player named a first-team All-American by the Senior CLASS Award, making ISU the only team with selections in both 2013 and 2014.
