RICHMOND, Va. – Elon University women's soccer redshirt sophomore Hannah Doherty and freshman Kate McKay earned Colonial Athletic Association Women's Soccer postseason honors on Thursday, Oct. 25, as announced by the league office. Doherty was placed on the All-CAA Second Team and McKay earned a spot on the CAA All-Rookie Team.
 
Doherty collects her second career All-CAA accolade with the Second Team selection. She made a big impact on the team playing primarily in the midfield. The Crumlin, Northern Ireland, native made 16 appearances and 12 starts during the 2018 season. Doherty finished the year with three goals and two assists for eight total points, which was the second-most on the team. Two of her three goals on the year came during conference action. Her strikes were highlighted by an excellent free kick at UNCW on Oct. 23.
 
McKay started in all 17 matches and had a goal and an assist in her first year with the Phoenix to earn a spot on the CAA All-Rookie Team. Playing at the center back position, she anchored one of the youngest back lines in the league, which helped contribute to four shutouts on the season. The Scottsdale, Ariz., native finished with three total points, scoring her first-career goal in a win against Towson on Sept. 30 and her assist came at Western Carolina on Aug. 23.
