KENNESAW, Ga. (November 1, 2006) - Three members of the ETSU women's soccer team were named all-conference selections and Jordan Monty (Dallas, Texas) was named Freshman of the Year Wednesday at the A-Sun awards banquet.

Monty was also named to the all-conference freshman team and the all-conference second team. She leads the Bucs with eight goals on the season and is currently tied for third in the conference. Monty was also named the A-Sun offensive player of the week earlier in the season.

Senior Emily Fulcher (New Bern, N.C.) was also named to the all-conference second team. Fulcher, an exercise science major, has scored five goals on the season and is currently tied for second on the ETSU all-time career goals list.

Kim Jones (Springfield, Va.) was named to the all-freshmen team after starting in 17 matches this year. Jones has been a huge presence in the defense and has man-marked some of the conferences top scoring threats and only one scored a goal against her.

The fourth seeded ETSU Bucs will take on the Jacksonville Dolphins Thursday, November 2 at 7:30 p.m. at Kennesaw State University. The winner of the game will advance to the semi-finals to face the No. 1 seeded Kennesaw State Owls.
