San Mateo, Calif. – Just eight days before their season opener, the Gaels have learned that their top goal scorer from last season, Suzuna Shibukawa, has been named to the All-WCC Preseason team.
Shibukawa's inclusion marks the second year in a row that a Gael has been named to the All-WCC Preseason team, with junior goalkeeper Taylor Poland being included in the squad last year. Along with the preseason team, the conference announced the WCC Preseason Poll as well, which has the Gaels finishing sixth in the conference.
Shibukawa joined the Gaels at the beginning of last season after starting her collegiate career at Western Michigan.
