Making an impressive debut this season, Fredrikson has helped The Tribe to a 15-2-2 record and No. 20 ranking. The Ashburn, Virginia native might not jump off the stat page, but on the field she makes quite the impression. Playing center back, Fredrikson helped the College post one of its finest defensive seasons in program history. W-M led the conference in almost every defensive category and ranked 17th in the country in goals-against average (0.617). Fredrikson was also a contributor offensively, tallying an assist in the Tribe's 2-0 win over Princeton.

The No. 20-ranked William and Mary Tribe women's soccer team will look to capture its 10th CAA title in program history this weekend when it hosts the Virginia 529 CAA Women's Soccer Championship. The Tribe will play the winner of the Delaware/Hofstra match at 7:30 p.m. on Friday,

Hofstra (10-7) begins play in the CAA Championship Thursday night as the fifth-seeded Pride take on #4 Delaware at 7:30 p.m.

Scolarici ranks third on the team in scoring with five goals and two assists, splitting time between forward and midfield.
