BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The University of Missouri soccer team saw two student-athletes earn postseason honors, announced by the Southeastern Conference office Sunday, Oct. 30. Junior Grace Pettet was named Second Team All-SEC while redshirt freshman Bella Hollenbach made the All-Freshman Team. Both players are earning conference honors for the first time in their careers.
Pettet, who was named team captain at the beginning of the season, started all 17 games for Mizzou in the 2022 season, playing 1,530 minutes. The junior scored the first two goals of her career, in back-to-back games. The first goal came against Ohio State, Aug. 21, and the second versus SIU, Aug. 25. Both goals came via headers off corner kicks. The Tulsa, Okla. native helped lead the team in three scoreless efforts.
As the last line of defense, Hollenbach was the starting goalkeeper for the Tigers in all 17 games this season, also playing 1,530 minutes. The redshirt junior finished seventh in the conference in saves (54) and saves per game (3.18) while earning three shutouts.
