The Virginia women's soccer team collected several honors when the ACC announced its conference awards Monday. Leading the Cavaliers was junior midfielder Sarah Huffman, who was named ACC Defensive Player of the Year.
Huffman was recognized for her contribution to a Virginia defense that allowed only eight goals this season and shut out its competition a school-record 12 times.
Senior forward Lindsay Gusick was named to the first-team All-ACC, along with Huffman, after leading the Cavaliers with 12 goals this season.
Sophomores Christina de Vries and Shannon Foley earned spots on the second-team All-ACC along with junior midfielder Noelle Keselica.
The conference also chose freshman Sarah Curtis for the All-Freshman team after the forward/midfielder started every game for the Cavaliers this season.
