Plumer doesn't have a lot of all stars.

Just a lot of very good players. No holes on that team. Defensive corp is great. Hanlon is a stud up front but I don't think she's got the numbers to make AA.

I put two on there. Having 1/6th of the AA team is pretty darn good?

Re: D-III All-Americans Watch

I can never understand why Jenna McCall from Elmira never gets any love for these kinds of things. You try and put up the numbers this kid has at this level being 4' 11". She can play on my All American team anyday...

...and then I'll throw in Plattsburghs Laurie Bowler into that same category...

I'd say

F: Kim Herring
F: Kristen Faber
F: Michaela Michaelson
D: Courtney Bean
D: Kristen Peterson
G: Melissa Kunzlemann or Danielle Justice...numbers are about equal...but Kunzlemann played more often.

That would be my guess..A little NCHA heavy but you know Herring, Michaelson, and Peterson will be there. Kunzlemann should with the numbers she's put up.

There is only one team in the west unless its changed with the addition of Marian..hopefully with SNC and CSS next year it will go up to two for sure.

IMHO focusing on numbers can sometimes be deceiving. If all these girls got together for rat hockey I would guess that Hanlon would be one of the first players picked. And, as a result of the great defense on Amherst, Hu rarely sees more than 3-4 serious chances per game, so those stats are a bit deceiving as well.

The west only gets one team. I don't think anyone on UWRF has the numbers to make it.

Re: D-III All-Americans Watch

Bowler is 5' 10"

So what...look at her numbers...remember, size isn't everything.
