Three 49ers named All-Conference USA Academic First Team
IRVING, Texas – Charlotte women's soccer continued to collect hardware for its trophy case Wednesday, as three 49ers were selected to the InTouch Credit Union All-Conference USA Academic First Team. No other school in the conference had as many players tabbed to the first team, while only North Texas, UAB and WKU had three players recognized between the first and second squads.
Charlotte honorees included senior Shelby Hicks, senior Katie O'Neill and junior Martha Thomas. It marks the second plaudit for Hicks, who was a second-team choice as a sophomore in 2014, and the second for Thomas, the Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year, who garnered her second-straight first-team mention.
