Lindsey Cesena Leads a List of WJU Players to Cal Pac Honors

Rocklin, Calif. - If the Cal Pac women's soccer all-conference selections are a picture of what is to come, then the prospects are indeed bright for the league's future of the sport. A combined twenty underclassmen dominated the teams, including the co-players of the year - junior Courtney Opie from Simpson University, and sophomore Lindsey Cesena from William Jessup University.

William Jessup University, who finished in second place with a 7-2-1 conference record, placed three players on the first team of the California Pacific all-conference women's soccer squad, two on the second team and one honorable mention, Commissioner Don Ott announced today.

Opie was joined on the first team by Simpson teammate Rebecca Borrelli. Cesena was joined by teammates Angela Lira and Jacque Cassell. Holy Names' Nikol Molano, Erica Udell, Sabel Maguire, Melissa Grimmond and Monique Reyes made the first team. Menlo College's Lacey Musante and Mills College's Chelsea Satterwhite were also first team picks.
