Fordham’s Jessica Widmann Selected to NSCAA All-Mid-Atlantic Region Team

Graduate Student Midfielder Named First Team All-Mid-Atlantic Region

NSCAA All-Mid-Atlantic Regional Teams
 
Fordham midfielder Jessica Widmann (East Meadow, N.Y.) picked up another piece of postseason hardware on Friday, as she was named NSCAA First Team All-Mid-Atlantic Region.
 
She was one of eight Atlantic 10 players honored on Friday, joining Brooke Stoller (1st Team), Miranda Horn (2nd Team), and Kristi Abbate (3rd Team) of George Washington, Nicole Waters (1st Team) and Ashley Campbell (2nd Team) of Dayton, Rebekka Sverrisdottir (2nd Team) of UMass, and Emily Gingrich (2nd Team) of Saint Joseph's.
 
The latest award comes just 10 days after being named to the 2015 Academic All-America® Division I Soccer Third Team, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).
 
Widmann wrapped up a stellar career at Fordham with a career year in 2015.  She was named First Team All-Atlantic 10 after leading the team in goals (12), assists (5), and points (29), while tying for the team-lead in game-winning goals with five. 
 
The 12 goals and 29 points are tied for the third-most by a Ram in a single season.  She earned Atlantic 10 Co-Player of the Week honors once this year, and climbed into top six all-time at Fordham in career goals (6th – 19), assists (T2nd – 14), points (6th – 52), and games started (T1st – 75).  Widmann was Fordham's first First Team All-Atlantic 10 selection since 2010.
 
Widmann was also a key component in the Rams' drive to the Atlantic 10 Championship game for the third time in team history.  She netted the game-tying goal in the Atlantic 10 semifinal against George Mason, and later notched the clinching penalty kick marker to send the Rams' into the A-10 final.  For her efforts in the tournament, she was selected to the All-Championship team.
