Frances Pomeroy Naismith Award

O Frances Pomeroy Naismith Award é um prêmio anual do basquetebol universitário norte-americano, que se concede ao jogador que, com una estatura inferior a media, mais se destacou ao longo da temporada.^[1]

O prêmio é assim denominado em homenagem a filha de James Naismith, que é o inventor do basquetebol. Ele é entregue desde 1969 (Masculino) e 1984 (Feminino). Na categoria masculina, o prêmio é entregue ao jogador que tenha a estatura até 1,83 metros, e é concedido pela NABC. Já na categoria femenina, a estatura limite é 1,73m, e é concedido pela WBCA.

Até 2011, apenas 2 universidades conseguiram repetir o troféu entre os homens ("St. John's Red Storm" e "UCLA Bruins"), e cinco entre as mulheres, ("Connecticut Huskies", "Gonzaga Bulldogs", "Johns Hopkins University", "Notre Dame Fighting Irish" e "Penn State Nittany Lions".
