BROCKTON, Mass. ---- A total of six student-athletes off the 2013 Massasoit CC women's soccer team were named to the All-New England Region XXI teams, announced by the conference over the weekend.

The six players earning postseason honors marked the most by a Warrior squad since 2009. Of those six Warriors to be recognized, four were named First Team All-New England, second most in program history and most since 1990.

The four players that earned First Team All-New England featured: Melanie Thompson (Middleboro), Kristin Reardon (Weymouth), Katie Arnold (Weymouth) and Zhandali Fontes (Taunton). 

The duo of Stephanie Villanueva (Whitman) and Ashley Westover (Stoughton) rounded out the award winners for Massasoit, earning a nod on the All-Region second team.

Massasoit concluded the season last Saturday falling to eventual District Champion Holyoke CC, 2-0, to close out the season 6-9-0 overall, 6-6-0 in Region XXI and 6-3-0 in divisional games.
