BOONE, N.C. — Junior defender Lindsey Tully (Charlotte, N.C./Charlotte Catholic) was named to the 2016 Sun Belt Preseason All-Conference team, the league announced on Tuesday. Appalachian State women’s soccer also finished fourth in the Sun Belt Preseason Coaches Poll.
“I appreciate the recognition for Lindsey Tully because she has definitely earned the respect through her performance in Sun Belt matches,” head coach Sarah Strickland said.
Tully was a dominant presence at center back all season and the most consistent defender for the Mountaineers last season, locking down opponents well enough to be voted first-team all-Sun Belt by the league.
