NEW YORK (AP) - Nebraska volleyball star Sarah Pavan maintained a 4.0 grade-point average in biochemistry while leading the Cornhuskers to a 33-1 season and the NCAA title. Those achievements earned the junior from Kitchener, Ontario, the 31st annual Honda-Broderick Cup as the nation's female college athlete of the year Monday. She's the fourth volleyball player to win the award and second straight winner from Canada.
Which was tougher, earning a 4.0 or winning a national championship?
"They're both so difficult in different ways," Pavan said. "I'd probably say winning the national championship because there are so many factors that you can't control."
