We were seeded 10th at NCCC\u2019s and beat the 7th seed Florida State in the first round, dropped a game we led after the 1st quarter to the eventual National Runner Up UC Santa Barbara 5-9 in the second round and a very tough 8-11 loss to Texas A&amp;M in the third round.&nbsp; We bounced back with a 14-9 win vs the 8th seed Boston University to finish 7th. Our 14th top ten finish in program history. Junior Olivia Sanders was selected to the NCCC All Tournament second team. Our highest and final ranking of the season was #6 after Nationals. Team Captains were Charlotte Welsh, Emily Shank, Grace Kellerman and Olivia Sanders (2nd Semester). Olivia Sanders was named Midwest MVP, Coughlin was named Midwest conference coach of the year. Juniors Olivia Sanders, Grace Kellerman, Emily Shank and Sophomore Rory Kilmer were named All Midwest 1st Team. Senior Charlotte Welsh, and Sophomores Abygail Dravis and Lauren Rodenberg were named All Midwest 2nd Team. This is only the third time in Midwest Conference and Team history that all seven ND starters earned All Midwest honors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Started the Season Ranked #13<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">February 11-22 Michigan State Invitational \u2013Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>ND 5 Michigan State (#20) 4 SDOT (W 1-0)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ND 3 Michigan (#5) 14 (L 1-1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ND 15 Michigan \u201cB\u201d 4 (W 2-1)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">February 25,26&nbsp;
