BLOOMSBURG, Pa. – After helping the Bloomsburg University women's soccer team reach its 11
th NCAA Tournament in program history last week, senior goalkeeper
Riley Spingler (Langhorne, Pa./Neshaminy) and freshman defender
Lorelei Hartzfeld (Mount Wolf, Pa./Northeastern) were named to the Division II Conference Commissioners Association All-Atlantic Region Second Team on Tuesday.
The all-region selections for the two defensive players are the first of their careers, and the postseason honors come after they helped the Huskies go 14-5-2 overall and 11-3-2 in conference play. The squad made an appearance in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Semifinals during the conference tournament and earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament for the fourth consecutive season.
Prior to earning a spot on the all-region team, Spingler was previously selected to the All-PSAC Second Team as one of the top goalkeepers in the nation. The senior finished the year with 11 shutouts (T-5
th in DII) and ranked 17
th in the country in save percentage (.862) and 21
st in goals against average (.621).
Hartzfeld is a First Team All-PSAC defender who was a crucial player in Bloomsburg's back line during their successful 2022 season. The Huskies defense held 14 opponents scoreless this season, and that is tied for the second-most shutouts in the nation. In addition, Hartzfeld helped Bloomsburg limit opponents to just 13 goals in 21 games, and the team's .613 goals against average is the 21
st best in DII.
