LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. – Headed by tournament MVPs Kaity Ward and Lindsey Peng of Trinity University, the conference office announced the 2020-21 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) Women’s Soccer All-Tournament team. Official Championship Website
Last month, the Trinity University Tigers culminated an impressive tournament run, earning the program its record-setting 24th conference title, with a 4-0 victory over University of Dallas at Gustafson Field on the campus of Texas Lutheran University.
The championship is the 24th for the Trinity women's soccer program, equaling the 24 won by the Trinity men's tennis program. The TU men's tennis team will have a chance next weekend to move back ahead as the winningest program in SCAC history - specific to conference championships - when they host the 2021 conference championship event.
Ward, a junior midfielder, was named the tournament's Most Valuable Offensive Player. Her five goals in the tournament equal the single tournament record, now shared with former Tiger Kelsey Falcone, who had five goals in the 2013 event - ironically, also held at Texas Lutheran. Ward had two goals against Schreiner, two against TLU and one in the championship fixture.
Peng, a senior defender, earned Most Valuable Defensive Player honors as the Tigers posted three consecutive shutouts to claim this year's title.
Trinity and Dallas each had a league-high five players earn all-Tournament recognition, followed by Southwestern with two selections and Texas Lutheran with one honoree.
