The Keuka College women’s lacrosse team, fresh off of winning its second straight North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) Tournament championship, had five players recognized by the conference on its first and second All-Conference teams.

Highlighting the five players was junior attacker Brandy Shafer (Rochester, N.Y./Eastridge) who was a first team selection as well as the Tournament MVP for the second straight year.  Shafer currently has 72 goals and 12 assists for 84 points.  Her goals and points total are both single-season records at Keuka.  She also leads the team with three game-winning goals and 36 draw controls.

Joining Shafer on the All-NEAC first team was classmate and midfielder Brittany Murray (Heuvelton, N.Y./Heuvelton).  Murray, a second team selection last season, is third on the team in scoring with 26 goals, nine assists, and 35 points.  She has a team-high 84 ground balls, a school record.

The second team was led by rookie goalie Molly Hogan (Horseheads, N.Y./Horseheads) who saved a school record 119 shots.  Hogan posted a .474 save percentage and a 9.78 goals against average.

Junior attacker Laura Dougherty (Geneva, N.Y./Geneva) was also selected to the second team.  Dougherty, a first team pick a season ago, was second on the Storm in scoring with 44 points and set a new school record for assists in a season with 20.  She added 24 goals, including two game-winners.

Senior midfielder Trista Partridge (Bath, N.Y./Haverling) was also picked to the second team after scoring 33 points on 24 goals and nine assists.  She added 55 ground balls and 29 draw controls.
