Erika Skindlov, and

Along the way, she also broke the EOU career record for goals scored with 30. Her mark surpassed the record of 29 set by Kristen Rice (2003-06). Of the seven goals scored this season, she had three of them be gamewinners. This is Farrington's third career All-CCC honors and second as a member of the First Team.
Mitchell was once again an anchor on the Mountaineers' defense. She appeared in 13 games and was a starter in 10 of those contests. She played all 90 minutes in multiple contests and was part of a defense that allowed just 13 goals during the regular season and posted nine shutouts. The Mountaineers nine shutouts were third most in the league during the regular season. For Mitchell, this is her fourth straight All-CCC honor and second in a row as a First Team selection.
Skindlov earned Second Team honors once again as a Midfielder as she was a key component on both sides of the ball for the Mountaineers. Defensively, she was part of an EOU unit that posted the third most shutouts in the regular season with nine. She also scored one goal and dished out an assist for three points. She appeared in all 15 games and was tabbed a starter in 14 contests. Her lone goal of the season was also a gamewinner. For Skindlov, she has now been tabbed All-CCC each of the last two seasons.

She played all 90 minutes in nearly every game and was able to score her first career goal during the season as well. For Mondragon, this is her first career All-CCC honor.
