Hannah Nielsen named Big Ten's Best Female Athlete

According to the official Northwestern Athletics website, "Junior Hannah Nielsen (Adelaide, Australia) continues to add accolades to her impressive resume, being named the Big Ten Conference's 2008 Suzy Favor Award winner, given annually to the conference's top female athlete. She becomes the third Wildcat woman to capture the award and the first since field hockey and lacrosse standout Jennifer Averill in 1987... The award is the latest in a long line of accolades for Nielsen, who last month was named the winner of the 2008 Tewaaraton Trophy, given to the nation's top collegiate lacrosse player. She also captured the 2008 Honda Sports Award for lacrosse, was named Player of the Year by the American Lacrosse Conference (ALC), Inside Lacrosse Magazine, the Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) and WomensLax.com. Nielsen was named the ALC Championship Most Valuable Player and was named to the NCAA Women's Lacrosse Championship all-tournament team en route to earning first-team All-American status from both Inside Lacrosse and IWLCA."

That's a whole lot of accolades for the young lady! So where does she rank among the all-time great Northwestern athletes?
