Notre Dame forward Luke Harangody and Kansas teammates Cole Aldrich and Sherron Collins are the leading vote-getters on The Associated Press' preseason All-America team. They are joined by Patrick Patterson of Kentucky and Kyle Singler of Duke on the team selected by a national media panel. Harangody, the only player to rank in the top 10 last season in scoring and rebounding, was a preseason pick last season and then was a second-team All-American after averaging 23.3 points and 11.8 rebounds for the Fighting Irish. Aldrich and Collins are the sixth set of teammates to be selected to the preseason team, which started in 1986-87, and the second from Kansas, joining Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce in 1997-98.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.
