Luoma was named the Mid-Con Player of the Year after finishing third in the league in goals (10), assists (6), goals per game (0.63) and points (26). The senior forward set Mid-Con records a year ago with most goals in a season (17) and most points in a season (46). Luoma has worked her way into four school records at Oakland -- most goals in a season, most points in a season, most career goals (44) and most points in a career (114). Lund earned first team honors for the second consecutive year.

The junior midfielder led the conference in assists with 10 and assists per game with 0.63. Moore is the final OU player on the Mid-Con first team. The sophomore defender helped the Grizzlies finish in the top of the Mid-Con in every defensive category. Moore had one assist on the season for Oakland. McGhee heads the second team for the Golden Grizzlies. The forward led the conference in goals per match (0.75) and ranked second in goals scored (12). McGhee had two games where she scored three goals and was named Player of the Week on October 2. Cartmell received second team honors after finishing seventh in the conference in assists (5) and assists per match (0.31). Buckland and Demers are the last two OU players on the second team.
