Kentucky, Nebraska, and Texas A&M lead the way with four players on the first three teams. Creighton and Purdue each had three players earn first-, second-, or third-team All-America honors.

Eight first-team honorees are earning their third All-America honors: Olivia Babcock of Pittsburgh, Mimi Colyer of Wisconsin, Eva Hudson of Kentucky, Kennedy Martin of Penn State, Harper Murray of Nebraska, Bergen Reilly of Nebraska, Elia Rubin of Stanford, and Torrey Stafford of Texas.
