Cambridge ranks in the top 25 nationally in scoring this season.
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Los Angeles Athletic Club's John R. Wooden Award, presented by Principal, announced its 2025-26 Women's Midseason Top 25 Watch List on Wednesday. Ohio State sophomore guard Jaloni Cambridge was among five Big Ten players on the list.
Â
The players on the list are considered strong candidates for the 2026 John R. Wooden Award® Women's Player of the Year. Players not selected for the list remain eligible for inclusion on the Wooden Award® midseason, late-season list, and the National Ballot. The National Ballot will feature 15 top players who have demonstrated to their universities that they meet or exceed the Wooden Award® qualifications.
Cambridge was named to the preseason watch lists for the Naismith Trophy and Wooden Award prior to the start of the season. She also earned a spot on the Preseason All-Big Ten Team. Cambridge has earned a spot on the Big Ten Weekly Honor Roll twice this season. She was also crowned the MVP of the Pink Flamingo Championship and headlined the all-tournament team for the event.
Â
Cambridge has scored at least 10 points in all 15 games of the season thus far. She's consistently ranked in the top five in the Big Ten in scoring as she currently averages a team-high 19.4 points per game. Cambridge continues to rank in the top five in the league in field goals made per game (7.8) and steals per game (2.5). She leads the team in scoring and assists, ranks second in steals and third in field goal percentage and rebounding. Cambridge tied her career-high 33 points against Northern Kentucky last month.
