Â
CC Wetter (#13, Sr., F, Southampton, New York) – All-Liberty League First Team
Wetter finished the season tied for fourth in the Liberty League with 12 goals representing her third consecutive season with double digit goals. She appeared in all 21 games, making 20 starts, and finished with a team high 28 points on 12 goals and four assists. Her season got off to a blazing start with six goals over the team's first four games. She later helped the team reach the postseason with the winning goal against William Smith in the regular season (Oct. 18), and then assisted on the game winner in the playoffs against the Herons (Nov. 5).
Â
Kayla Hassett (#19, Sr., M, Massapequa, New York) – All-Liberty League First Team
Hassett was voted to the All-Liberty League Team for the third season in a row, with this the first time garnering first-team honors. One of the premier midfielders in the league, Hassett started all 21 games, scoring one goal and registering a team-high six assists for eight points. She finished tied for third in the Liberty League in assists. Logging over 1,100 minutes on the field, she led the team both offensively and defensively. On the defensive end, she helped lead a unit that recorded six shutouts and a 1.81 goals-against average.
Â
Victoria Bodnar (#30, Sr., GK, Long Valley, New Jersey) – All-Liberty League Second Team
Bodnar stamped her name on the Skidmore record books with her outstanding season in goal for the Thoroughbreds. She went 9-12 with a 1.82 goals-against average, .793 save percentage, and six shutouts. With 146 saves on the season, she moved into second place in program history in career saves, finishing with 386. She also set a single-game program record when she made 26 saves against Middlebury (Sept. 25). Bodnar tied for first in the Liberty League in shutouts and led in saves while finishing third in save percentage.
Â
Erin Ohlenbusch (#20, So., M, Stratham, New Hampshire) – All-Liberty League Honorable Mention
Ohlenbusch came into the program as a sophomore transfer in 2024 and made an immediate impact. She started all 21 games and led the team with well over 1,200 minutes played. A force on both ends of the field, she finished with two goals and one assist for five points and registered 17 shots. Relied on to defend corners and routinely drawing the most difficult defensive assignments, Ohlenbusch stood tall for Skidmore, helping lead the team that surrendered one goal or fewer 10 times in 2024.
