she\'s the only eight-time

anglais vers français Autre Sports / forme physique / loisirs Basketball
Hello,

Can someone explain me what "eight-time" refers to in this sentence about a basketball player. Does this mean that she has partisipated eight time in a tournament?
I have found another sentence about the same player:

Cheryl Miller was basketball's only eight-time All-American (four high school, four college), once scoring 105 points in a prep game

Would you have an idea how to say it in French?

Thank you

Anne-Lise

Non-PRO (1): GILLES MEUNIER

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
