Comments: The coaches did pick the right players for each position, but I think the 1st team needs two at-large spots to accommodate positions that are especially deep. For this season, 3rd base comes to mind: Jocelyn Dearborn put up amazing numbers on the year for Fordham and thus deserved her spot on the squad, but Monica Aguilar deserved a spot on the squad as well. Aguilar had the numbers to be on the 1st team, but because of her position she was relegated to the 2nd team.



While a couple of the individual awards could have gone in another direction, they came out just about how I expected them to.
