Nov 6, 2003 | Women's Soccer
Senior Stephanie Kirby was named to the Cosida academic all-district VII first team on Thursday with a 3.975 GPA in biology and becomes a candidate for the All-American team that will be announced Nov. 25. Junior Rachel Tushner and sophomore Amy Price made the second team. All three made the academic all-North Central Conference team earlier this season. Tushner has a 3.926 GPA in exercise science and Price has a 3.598 in biology. Kirby is a three-time academic-NCC team member and was a NSCAA academic all-Central Region member last year.
All three Mavs will head to Mankato, Minn., this weekend to help defend three straight North Central Conference post season tournament championships. UNO (14-2-2) fell to 15th in the nation after losing 2-0 to Rockhurst last weekend but already wrapped up the No. 2 seed in the four-team NCC tournament. Third seeded North Dakota will face the Mavs and top-seeded Minnesota State will battle with No. 4 South Dakota State in the two semifinal matchups on Friday. The championship match will take place Saturday.
A fourth straight NCC championship will give UNO a good chance to host the four-team NCAA Central Region tournament. Parings for the Nov. 14-16 event will be announced Nov. 10 at 4 p.m and the Mavs were the top team in the most recently released regional rankings.
