2000 Women's Soccer All-Conference Teams Released
Bonney of Middlebury
Named Player of the Year
HARTFORD, Conn. – Sophomore
striker Meg Bonney of Middlebury was named the 2000 NESCAC
Women’s Soccer Player of the Year. Bonney, the 1999 NESCAC
Rookie of the Year, led the conference in scoring with 13 goals and
30 points in leading the Panthers to the conference championship.
Bonney was one of four players to
earn first-team honors for the second consecutive year. Junior back
Ellie Wendell and junior goalkeeper Ali Connolly were each named to
the first team in their sophomore seasons. Wendell played outside
or center back for the Panther defense that ranked among the
nation’s leaders. Connolly posted the lowest goals against
average in the NESCAC. Senior midfielder Allison Farmer of Bowdoin
earned first-team accolades for the second consecutive year,
starting every game at defensive midfield.
Five other players named to the
first team this season were second-team honorees a year ago. Senior
back Amanda Fiedler of Middlebury was the team’s captain and
consistent center back. Abby Lockwood of Bowdoin, also a senior
back, joined Fielder on the second team last year and the first
team this season. Senior midfielder Sara Yeatman led Tufts with 10
goals, including five game-winners, to earn first team honors.
Junior midfielder Cathy Poor earned a spot on the first team as the
leading scorer for Amherst despite being limited by an injury.
Sophomore forward Christine O’Donnell received first-team
recognition after leading Colby with 11 goals, including four
game-winners.
Rounding out the first team were
sophomore forward Stacey Starner of Williams and senior back Sarah
Lovitz of Colby. Starner led the Ephs with eight goals and six
assists for 22 points. Lovitz, a two-time All-New England
selection, anchored the Colby defense.
Freshman forward Jess Trombly of
Tufts, a second-team All-NESCAC performer this year, was named 2000
NESCAC Rookie of the Year. She scored four goals and assisted on
three others. Third-year Middlebury head coach Diane Boettcher was
named 2000 NESCAC Coach of the Year.
