ELON, N.C. — Elon women's soccer senior Abby Fusca earned first-team All-CAA honors and freshman Ashlee Brehio was selected to the league's second team and All-Rookie team, the CAA announced Wednesday.
 
Fusca has been sensational this season, recording the second-most points (10) and goals (four) among CAA defenders. Her 26 shots are tied for the most among league defenders, and she's put 15 on goal, good for a .577 shot-on-goal percentage. Defensively, she's helped the Phoenix post eight shutouts, its most since recording eight in 2015. Its five shutouts in CAA play were tied for the league lead and marked its most since joining the conference before the 2014 season.
 
Fusca is the fourth Elon player to earn first-team All-CAA honors, joining Kendall Ballotti (2016), Hannah Doherty (2019) and Kayla Hodges (2021).
 
Brehio finished the regular season tied for third among CAA freshmen in goals (six) and sixth in points (12). Both of those marks lead the Phoenix, as do her 39 shots and 19 shots on goal. The Hopkinton, N.H., native's six goals are tied for the third most by a Phoenix freshman since 2002 and are the most since Jessica Carrieri scored nine in 2019. She's looking to become the first freshman to lead Elon in goals since Meredith Christopher scored seven en route to being named the 2017 CAA Rookie of the Year.
 
Brehio is the 10th Phoenix freshman to receive CAA All-Rookie accolades and the first to make either the first or second team.
 
Elon will return to the pitch Thursday when it faces Towson in the CAA Championship quarterfinals. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. at Monmouth.
