Boston College women's basketball forward Andrea Daley found herself in elite company when it was announced Wednesday afternoon that she had made the preseason Cheryl Miller Award watch list for the upcoming season.

The Cheryl Miller small forward of the year award is, as the name implies, given to the player that the voters deem to be the best small forward in Division 1 Women's Basketball. Only 20 players make the preseason listing, and the hype around Daley was strong enough to put her in consideration for 2024.

Iowa State's Ashley Joens took home the award in each of the last three seasons, meaning that if Dalye does win it for her performance this year, it would make her the first Boston College player in the award history to do so.

The award namesake, Cheryl Miller, dominated during her career both in the prep ranks and at the collegiate level. Miller set the single game scoring record with 105 points during her high school career en route to a 179-15 win.

In 1986, Miller was named as Sports Illustrated's best male or female player in college basketball.

Countdown to Boston College men’s basketball season opener: 

4 days.
