Team Honors Invidiuals At Awards Banquet


We held our Awards banquet this weekend in the Meyer-Martin Athletic Complex. What a great set up and wonderful night.

We posted a program-best 14-4-2 record, including a 4-2-1 MWC record.
Overall, TCU climbed as high as No. 24 in the nation during the year, while placing three student-athletes on the all-conference squad, including the Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year Jordan Calhoun.

On Friday, Calhoun, a 2008 Freshman All-American, took home three honors as she was named Newcomer of the Year, Co-Offensive MVP and received the Co-Citius, Altius, Forti award (Which is our strength and conditioning award) .

Fellow forward, Lizzy Karoly also piled up the honors as she collected the Citius, Altius, Forti award, as well as the Co-Offensive MVP award.

Sophomore Julia Slater was honored as the top GPA for both the spring and fall 08 semesters.

Sophomore Cheryl Martin was honored with Defensive MVP honors, while freshman Chelsey Wilgenburg earned the Addy award-given out to the player who demonstrates the most intangibles and is named after the TCU Mascot "Addy".

Finally, sophomore goalkeeper Kelsey Walters garnered the Purple Heart award-after every game the team votes on a purple heart winner and the player with the most at the end of season keeps the plaque.
