Women's soccer gets golden boot

This past Wednesday, three of CSUS' women's soccer players were honored for their achievements on the field. Junior forward Jessica Mackiewicz and junior goalkeeper Kate Mathany garnered first team all Big-Sky honors, while junior Kristy Milanese received an honorable mention for her efforts.

Mackiewicz dominated the opposition all season with an astonishing mark of 13\ goals, setting the school's single season record. It also gave her the highest goal mark in the entire conference for the season, earning her the Big Sky's Golden Boot award. It came as no surprise then that the Rancho Cordova native was a unanimous selection to the first team.

Mathany, who also hails from the Sacramento area, led the Hornet midfield both defensively and offensively. She aided her team to five shutouts this season as well as helping them capture their second-best offensive season in school history.

In her first season as a Hornet, Milanese earned the goalkeeper job, and with good reason. Milanese only allowed an average of 1.22 goals per game in addition to recording five shutouts, which set the school's single season record in that category.
