| | Poole Schmitt |
Schmitt, an outside midfielder, earned second team All-Great Lakes recognition from the NSCAA and third team All-Region from Soccer Buzz. She recorded 23 points on the year, the third-highest total on the team and paced the team with 13 assists, the second-highest single season total in school history. Schmitt ended her career with 59 points, one of only seven Wolverines to have 50 career points.
Poole and Schmitt joined Penn State's Kelly Convey, Emily Oleksiuk and Christie Welsh as the only Big Ten Conference players noted on the team.
Michigan has only had two All-Americans -- Amber Berendowsky (Brighton, Mich./Brighton HS) and Erin Gilhart, both as second teamers by the NSCAA in 1997.
