Niper, an economics major with a 4.0 GPA, was a key member of the stingy Buffalo defense that earned six clean sheets this season. The strong midfielder was a terror in the middle for the Bulls winning every ball in the air and shutting down the most dangerous offensive threat on the opposing team game in and game out. The Princeton, NJ native also netted two goals and an assist for five points while notching a career-high 31 shots as a senior.
An exercise science major with a 3.984 GPA, Benati had a strong season for the Bulls as she appeared in 14 matches and made 13 starts while earning Second Team All-MAC honors for the second straight season.
