McNeill becomes the second player in program history to earn the award

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (EMUEagles.com) - Following the earlier Scholar All-Region team announcement, the United Soccer Coaches announced that Eastern Michigan University soccer redshirt senior Sabrina McNeill (Whitby, Ontario-Henry Street) has been named a Third Team Scholar All-American, today, May 20.

The forward becomes the second player in EMU soccer history to collect the accolade, after Tracy Deeter was named to the first team in 2000. McNeill holds a 3.47 GPA in her exercise science studies, and was named to the North/Central Scholar All-Region team earlier this afternoon. 

A First Team All-Mid-American Conference selection, McNeill led the Eagles with seven goals and one assist for 15 total points on the season.  The redshirt senior was also named the MAC West Offensive Player of the Week twice, March 17 and 23. The Whitby, Ontario product finishes her EMU career ranking fourth all-time on the program's career points list (67). Her 27 career goals also rank fourth on the all-time goals scored list.

​​​​To be eligible for Scholar All-America recognition, student-athletes must hold a 3.40 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) or better throughout their career,  have started more than 50 percent of all games and significantly contributed to their team during the season, and be a junior or above in academic standing, or in their second season at the school if a transfer. 

Eastern Michigan finished the season with a 6-3 mark, finishing tied for second in the MAC West and fourth overall in the conference.
