Five College of Wooster women's soccer players were honored by the North Coast Athletic Conference late Monday when the all-conference team was announced, highlighted by junior midfielder Chantal Koechli (Greer, S.C. / Brighton – Mich.) and senior defender Kristin McCall (Portage, Mich. / Portage Northern) earning first-team recognition.

Sophomore Liz Mott (Briarcliff Manor, N.Y. / The Masters School) was voted to the All-NCAC Second Team, while senior Kate Kiley (Dedham, Mass. / Noble and Greenough School) and freshman Kelsey Peters (Goshen, Ind. / Goshen) each received honorable mention.

Koechli, now a two-time all-NCAC pick, served as a pivotal player for the Fighting Scots on both ends of the field. She was the squad's second-leading scorer and seventh in the league with 20 points, while also helping limit the opposition to 17 goals on the season – tied for the lowest in the league. Koechli's 20 points included an NCAC-best 10 assists, which also tied for the third-most in school history.

McCall, who notched her third all-conference award and second first-team selection in a row, anchored Wooster's defense once again. She led a backfield that assisted in holding opponents to one goal or less during 16 of the squad's 20 matches, including eight shutouts. Offensively, McCall chipped in with four points coming on her first career goal, which occurred with just :37 remaining in her final regular season home game, and two assists.

Mott, a forward, moved up from honorable mention to second-team all-league status after pacing the Scots in scoring again. She scored nine goals and assisted on three others, ranking sixth in the NCAC in total points (21) as well as tied for fifth in goals. Many of Mott's tallies came against high-caliber competition as she combined for five goals during matches with Denison University, Kenyon College, and Wittenberg University.

Kiley, who began her career as a starting goalkeeper and made the transition to the forward line, collects her first postseason award. She matched Mott with nine goals, tying for fifth in the conference in that category, and passed out an assist as well for 19 points. Kiley keyed back-to-back Wooster wins over nationally-ranked Denison, as she scored early in the 2-1 regular season finale that gave the Scots a berth in the postseason and accounted for the lone tally in the teams' NCAC Tournament semifinal meeting.

Peters was one of the top first-years, one of just four from across the league to receive all-NCAC laurels. She played mainly as a defender, serving as a cornerstone of a unit that helped Wooster rank second in the conference in goals against average (0.83), and moved up at times to make an impact in the midfield, too. Peters registered three points on one goal and one assist.

As a team, the Scots started the season 6-0, and after a tough 3-5 stretch, added a five-game win streak before suffering a heartbreaking 1-0 loss in double overtime to Wittenberg in the NCAC tourney finals. Overall, Wooster wound up 14-6 overall, including 5-3 in conference games, good for fourth-place.
