Frances Pomeroy Naismith Award


 
National Prestige
  

The Frances Pomeroy Naismith Award was an annual college basketball award in the United States intended to honor shorter-than-average players
who excelled on the court despite their size. The award, named in honor of James Naismith's daughter-in-law, was established for men in 1969 and for women in 1984.
The men's award was presented to the nation's most outstanding senior who was 6’ 0” or shorter.
