Kopec, Oerlemans Named to All-Conference Team

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Following impressive seasons on the pitch, freshman Julianne Kopec and senior Nienke Oerlemans have been named to the BIG EAST All-Conference Team. Kopec was named First Team while Oerlemans was named Second Team.

Kopec had a breakout debut in Cherry and White, scoring a team-leading six goals including three game-winners to tie for third in the league. The West Long Branch, N.J. native most recently scored the game-winning goal over No. 20 UConn to clinch the Owls' BIG EAST Tournament berth for the second-straight year. The win was the first time since 1989 that Temple has topped the Huskies and the first time since 2016 that the team has defeated a ranked opponent.
