The Catamounts’ head coach, Chad Miller, was named SoCon Coach of the Year after his squad captured its second straight outright SoCon regular-season title. UNCG forward Merle Greulich was tabbed SoCon Freshman of the Year. &nbsp; The league coaches voted on a pair of all-conference teams, an all-freshman team and the four individual awards. They were not allowed to vote for themselves or their own players. The first team and second team each includes 11 players, both voted on by position.

The junior is the first SoCon Defensive Player of the Year in program history. Western Carolina has had a previous player of the year recipient, with Isabella DeMarco winning SoCon Player of the Year in 2023. &nbsp; Greulich made an immediate impact on the UNCG offense as she started seven of the team’s nine conference matches. The native of Dortmund, Germany, finished the season with four goals scored, all coming in league matches, with one being a game winner against Wofford on Oct. 6. Greulich is the ninth Spartan to be named SoCon Freshman of the Year, with Nicole Souply being the most recent in 2018.Miller, in his 15th season at the helm of the Catamounts, earns coach of the year honors for the second straight season.

Furman and Samford had two on the first team, while Mercer finished with one selection. Robitaille was joined by forwards DeMarco and Milla Syska, midfielder Naya Marcil, defender Becca Campbell and goalkeeper Leanne Trudel on the first team.
