Bittinger, the first All-American in SU program history, earned a spot on the 19-member third team.

This is the second career All-America laurel for Arrix. She started and played in 14 contests this season. Arrix tied for the team lead with 17 caused turnovers and also grabbed 19 ground balls. The Generals' defense allowed just 5.53 goals per game, which led the conference by over four goals per game and is the sixth-best average in Division III. Earlier this year, she was selected as the ODAC's Defensive Player of the Year and made the All-ODAC First Team.

Shelley, the ODAC Offensive Player of the Year and a first team all-conference honoree, led the league and finished seventh in the nation with 50 assists. The 50 assists are also the second-most in a single-season in program history. Shelley set the single-season assists record with 53 in 2019. She also had 17 goals this year towards 67 points. The 67 points are tied for the 10th-most in a single-season in W&L history.
