Jenei Estrada (Moreno Valley, Calif.) and Annie Knierem (Jr., Glasgow, Mont.) were named to the MIAC All-Conference Honorable Mention Team. Kaplan, in his initial season, was named MIAC Co-Coach of the Year.

Jacques led the team in scoring with 24 goals and 21 assists. It is her highest point total in her three-year career as a Cobber. Jacques led the league in game-winning goals with eight. She also finished third in the MIAC in points (35) and goals (20), and fourth in assists (15).

Wilson was the backbone of the Cobber defense. She finished the season with a school-record 12 wins. Her ten wins in conference play also sets a school record. She finished the season with a goals against average of 2.48 - her lowest as a Cobber - and a save percentage of .921. She eclipsed the 1000 minutes of playing time plateau for the second time in her career.

Kurtis tied for the team lead in assists with 19. She finished the season with 33 total points. She now has 84 points in her first two years at Concordia. Kurtis finished second in the MIAC in assists, with 17. She was also seventh in overall scoring with 27 points and 12th in goals scored (10).

Knierem finished the year with 17 goals and 11 assists. She was third on the team in scoring. Her 22 league points placed her 13th on the scoring list. She also finished seventh in goals and sixth in power play goals. She had three game-winning goals, including the deciding tally in Concordia's first-ever playoff win over St. Ben's.

For Caplan, the award caps a season that saw him guide the Cobbers to a school-record 13 wins. The team also finished the season fourth in the MIAC, the highest finish ever for a Concordia women's hockey team. The final record of 13-8-1 also sets the record for fewest losses in a season by a Cobber women's team.
