It was the third straight season that Clark was named all ODAC, having been the first team selection in 2018 and 2017, as a goalkeeper. Emma recorded 121 saves on the season, good for third in the conference. Her .791 save percentage was also third in the league as the senior was in goal for all 12 of the Maroon's wins during the season.

Hurley was named to the All ODAC second team in just her second season. The sophomore was ranked in the top 15 in the final ODAC rankings in goals, assists, shots, and total points. With five assists and 51 shots, Hurley finished ninth in the league in each of those categories.
