Krista Fitzpatrick, Division, Sr., Midfielder

Fitzpatrick was a master of set pieces as she notched an Island-best 20 assists and helped lead Division to an undefeated regular season. Whether it was corner kicks or set plays from midfield, Fitzpatrick was able to connect with her teammates more than anyone else this year.
