Jessica Davenport, Troy Smith Named 2007 Ohio State Athletes of the Year

Heisman recipient Smith earns men's award, Davenport repeat winner on women's side

June 13, 2007

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Jessica Davenport and Troy Smith were named 2007 Ohio State Athletes of the Year Wednesday in an announcement made by the Ohio State department of athletics. Davenport finished her women's basketball career in 2007 as the program's first three-time All-American. Also in his senior campaign, Smith quarterbacked the Buckeyes to the 2007 Bowl Championship Series National Title game and was named Ohio State's seventh Heisman Trophy winner.

Davenport, who also was named 2006 Women's Ohio State Athlete of the Year, is the first repeat women's winner since Donica Merriman earned the honor for her performance on the track and field team in 2000 and '01. Stacey Gordon is the most-recent two-time recipient for her efforts on the volleyball court in 2003 and '05. Smith is the third-consecutive football player to claim the men's award. Mike Nugent, a place kicker, was the winner in 2005 and A.J. Hawk, a linebacker, received the honor last year.

Davenport, who graduated March 19 with a degree in family resource management/consumer affairs, became the first student-athlete to be named Big Ten player of the year three times in a career. The product of Columbus Independence High School led the Buckeyes to a 28-4 overall mark in 2006-07 and Ohio State's third-consecutive league crown. She topped the conference in scoring at 20 points per game and ranked second in the league in rebounds per contest (9.6) and field goal percentage (.597/ 222-372).

The only player in Big Ten history to record 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 300 blocked shots in a career, Davenport posted a four-year total of 384 blocks and ended her Buckeye run as the league's all-time leader. Davenport finished with 2,303 career points, which rates fifth all-time in Big Ten history and second at Ohio State. The Buckeyes went a combined 108-22 (.831) during her career, the best four-year span in team history.
