Peyton Goodrich's strong season continues as she nabbed a second-team spot. Her 78 goals this season are the second most in a single season, as are her 95 points and 89 draw controls. Goodrich achieved a couple of career milestones this season as she became the second player in program history to break 200 points, and 200 draw controls, joining Gibbs in both category. She also broke past the 100 ground ball threshold, joining Gibbs and Kuser.  

Maeve Kuser complimented her second consecutive Landmark Conference first-team selection with an all-region second-team honor. Among DIII players, she was 45th in caused turnovers per game. She joined Gibbs as the program's second player to have 100 caused turnovers.
