She converted 53.2% of her shots into goals and also tallied 11 groundballs, 10 draw controls, and six caused turnovers. DeShaw had three game-winning goals.
Five Gulls earned Second Team All-TCCC honors including repeat winner Leah Neff (South Berwick, Maine), the team's goalie. Neff compiled a 10-1 record in TCCC games, allowing just 7.25 goals per game which was second in the conference. The junior made 55 saves (.495 save percentage).
