University senior forward Heather Anzivino and The College of
New Jersey junior back Courtney Krol have been named the New
Jersey Athletic Conference Women’s Soccer Offensive and Defensive
Players of the Year respectively for the 2006 season.
The 2003 NJAC Rookie of the Year, Anzivino is a four-time
all-conference selection and a two-time first team pick. She
currently leads the NJAC in points (43), goals (19), points per game
(2.53) and goals per game (1.12). Against NJAC competition, Anzivino
posted conference-best totals of nine goals and 21 points.
A staple in the TCNJ defensive backfield, Krol earned Defensive
Player of the Year honors for the second consecutive season after
anchoring a Lion defense that has allowed just seven goals in 17
matches played on the season. A two-time all-conference selection,
Krol leads a defensive unit that leads the NJAC in both goals
against average (0.37) and shutouts (12). Krol and the top-seeded
Lions will be seeking their second consecutive NJAC Championship
when they host second-seeded Montclair State in the 2006 NJAC
Tournament Championship match on November 4.
Montclair State senior net-minder Kristin Kuhmann was the
recipient of the conference’s Goalkeeper of the Year Award. A
two-time NJAC all-conference selection, Kuhmann earned NJAC
Defensive Player of the Week honors three times during the season.
She currently leads the league in both total saves (155) and save
percentage (.906).
Montclair State freshman forward Natalia Sisti was tapped as
the 2006 NJAC Rookie of the Year. A two-time NJAC Weekly award
selection, Sisti currently ranks second in the NJAC in goals (16),
and third in the league in points (35).
