USC’s Cassie Harberts and UCLA’s Atonye Nyingifa and Nirra Fields were voted to the Pac-12 Conference women’s basketball all-conference team by conference coaches.

The team included 15 players.

Harberts, a senior forward from San Clemente, has averaged 16.2 points and 7.5 rebounds for the Trojans, who are 18-12 and seeded fifth in the Pac-12 tournament that begins Thursday at KeyArena in Seattle.
