AUGUSTA, Ga. – University of North Georgia women’s soccer seniors Renee VanHorn and Asa Thorsen were picked to the All-Peach Belt Conference First Team as it was announced at the tournament banquet Thursday night prior to the start of the PBC tournament tomorrow.
VanHorn finished in fourth place in the league with 12 goals on the season. She added three assists as well to total 27 points. Six of her 12 goals were game winners.
Thorsen put two goals in the back of the net and assisted on three others this season as a key player in the midfield for the Nighthawks. VanHorn and Thorsen were two of just four players on UNG’s side to play and start in all 16 matches this season.
This is the second All-Conference nod for both student-athletes as Thorsen was named first team last season while VanHorn was a second teamer a year ago.
Columbus State was the big winner of the night, sweeping all major awards with Player of the Year Olivia Jarrell, Freshman of the Year Rachal Sweigard and Coach of the Year Jay Entlich. The awards are selected by the league’s head coaches.
