Offensively, freshman standout Vis earned her spot in the starting lineup, recording three goals in her last eight contests to send the team into playoffs with an eight-game undefeated streak.

Her debut performance additionally nabbed her second team All-Conference honors.

The two combined to help the Regals to an overall 10-2-5 record and 8-2-4 record in conference play.
