2018 All-SEC Soccer Teams

ORANGE BEACH, Ala. – As the Razorback soccer team arrives in Orange Beach, Alabama today to begin preparation for its SEC Tournament match against Ole Miss on Tuesday, three of its players were recognized to All-SEC teams for their stellar play this season.

Sophomore Haley VanFossen and juniors Stefani Doyle and Tori Cannata were all named as part of the league’s best with VanFossen bringing home All-SEC First Team honors. Doyle and Cannata were both named to the second team.
