An All-Big Ten Honorable Mention in 2024-25, Sayvia Sellers enters her third season with Washington.
2024-25 (SOPHOMORE)
Sellers scored double-figures in 25 of 33 games and ended her season T-14th in the Big Ten in field goals made per game (5.8), T-10th in assists per game (3.9), and ninth in steals (1.8). She averaged 15.3 points in the 2024-25 campaign and recorded 30-point performances against Utah (12/14) and Michigan (1/15). In The Bahamas, Sellers’ scoring barrage continued against No. 7 LSU (11/25), where she knocked down 24 points with four 3-pointers. The proficiency from behind the arc allowed the sophomore to finish fifth in the Big Ten in 3-point makes (41) and eighth in 3-point field goal percentage (38%). In her sophomore campaign, Sellers improved her overall shooting percentage by seven percent (47%, 190-404) and her shooting percentage from behind the arc by over eight percent (38.7%, 67-173).

Sellers was named to the Pac-12 Media All-Freshman Team and the Pac-12 All-Freshman Team in 2023-24 after averaging 8.5 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.3 steals per game in 31 appearances (11 starts).
