Buzzards Bay, MA --- Senior’s Stephanie
Demake (Auburn, MA) and Shannon Feeley
(W. Springfield, MA), junior Rachael Armenti (West
Boylston, MA) along with sophomore Danielle
Clifford (Attleboro, MA) have been named to the All-MASCAC
Women’s Soccer team in a vote by the leagues coaches earlier
this week. Demake and Clifford were distinguished on the First-team
while Feeley and Armenti were honored on the Second-team.
Clifford had a sensational second year as the main striker for the
Lancers as she tallied team highs of 10 goals, seven assists for a
total of 27 points. Clifford finished the regular season fourth
overall in the MASCAC in points and tied for fourth in goals.
Demake started in 17 of 18 games this season as she primarily
played center back. Demake made numerous team-saves throughout the
season as she also tallied a game-clinching goal in a 1-0 triumph
over Fitchburg State while she ended the year with two goals and
two assists for a total of four points.
Demake was a First-team All-MASCAC selection in 2007 as she helped
the Lancers win the MASCAC regular season and tournament
championship and make the NCAA Division III Tournament Sweet 16.
Demake wraps up her three-year career at WSC with six goals, four
assists for a total of 16 points in 55 games. Four of her six goals
were game-winning markers.
Armenti had a breakout season in her second year as the full-time
keeper for the women’s soccer team. Armenti ended up the
regular season second in the MASCAC in save percentage (.892) and
third in goals against average (0.86). Armenti also had a
conference-best seven shutouts which included three against MASCAC
opponents.
Feeley, was a solid midfielder for WSC this season as she
registered five goals and two assists for 12 points, which was
third-highest on the team. Feely, an All-MASCAC First-team
selection in 2005, finishes her women’s soccer career with 13
goals, six assists for a total of 32 points in 70 games (52
starts).
Worcester State currently has a 9-6-3 record and they finished the
season unbeaten at 4-0-3 in MASCAC play under the direction of
second year head coach Kevin Cumberbatch. The
Lancers were ousted from the conference tournament semifinals
yesterday by MCLA in a 3-2 setback.
WSC awaits word on a possible ECAC bid when the announcement comes
this Monday.
