Gummersall, who is from Wilmette, Ill., received All-ACC honors for the second straight year, after earning first team distinction as a junior. In her final year with the Blue Devils, Gummersall leads the team with 11 goals and 26 points, while also posting four assists and two game-winning tallies. She tallied her first career hat trick in a 4-1 victory over 13th-ranked Virginia Tech on senior day.

Campbell has received Soccer America National Team of the week honors along with being named to the Duke/Nike All-Tournament team.
