Missouri women’s basketball wing Grace Slaughter was named to the All-SEC second team by the league’s coaches, the conference announced Tuesday.

Slaughter is the first Mizzou player to appear on an All-SEC team since Hayley Frank in 2023. It’s the second performance-based postseason SEC award of Slaughter’s career, as she made the all-freshman team in 2024.

The Grain Valley, Missouri, native leads Mizzou with 18.9 points and 6.5 rebounds per game. She has the best 3-point shooting percentage, 37.9%, among Mizzou’s primary rotation, and she is second in total assists.

In 31 starts, no team has held Slaughter below 10 points this season. With 585 points so far this season, Slaughter ranks eighth in Mizzou history for single-season points. With 1,409-career points, the junior ranks 13th on Missouri’s all-time scoring leaderboard.

Only one player in the SEC, Florida guard and All-SEC first-team selection Liv McGill, played more minutes per game than Slaughter’s 35.8 minutes per outing this season.

Mizzou, in its first season under head coach Kellie Harper, finished its regular season with a 16-15 overall record and a 4-12 mark in SEC play. Both of those win totals are the most since Slaughter arrived in Columbia.

The Tigers will face Alabama in the first round of the SEC Tournament in Greenville, South Carolina. Tipoff is set for 7:30 p.m. CT on Wednesday. Mizzou likely has to win to keep its season alive.

Vanderbilt’s Mikayla Blakes was named the SEC Player of the Year, and her coach, Shea Ralph, was named Coach of the Year. 

The SEC’s Newcomer of the Year was Ole Miss’ Cotie McMahon, South Carolina’s Raven Johnson was named the Defensive Player of the Year and MiLaysia Fulwiley at LSU was tabbed for Sixth Woman of the Year.

Slaughter is eligible to play one more season at Missouri.
