Dresner picks up her third career All-UAA honor after garnering First Team honors as a freshman and was Honorable Mention as a sophomore. For the 2021 season, Dresner was the team leader in minutes played and was one of three Eagles to start all 20 games. She anchored a defensive unit that recorded 12 shutouts, the most by an Emory team since 2012, and held opponents to a total of 11 goals and 3.85 shots on goal per game. Dresner added two assists on the offensive end, both coming in wins over Berry and Wittenberg.
McBerry collects her first All-UAA honor after leading the team in goals (8) and points (19) in her first full season with the Eagles. McBerry registered at least one goal or one assist in eight games with the team going 6-2 in those contests. She had a season-high five points in the win over Maryville on September 22 and recorded a goal in each of the team's NCAA tournament games.
Hall and Blanchard each garner their first All-UAA Honorable Mention nod as they finished second and third on the team in points. Hall netted five goals and was tied for second in the UAA with a career-best eight assists. She had at least one goal or one assist in nine games across the season with the team going 7-2 and had a stretch of at least one point in seven of eight games. For Blanchard, she finished her second campaign with six goals and four assists for 16 points, with all six markers coming in team wins.
Hilsee rounds out the All-UAA selections as she earns her third career All-UAA honor. She was one of three players to start in all 20 games, finishing third on the team in minutes played. Hilsee notched her third season with double-digit points, finishing with six goals and two assists for 14 points. Three of her six goals acted as game-winners in wins over non-conference foes Ohio Northern, Greensboro and Roanoke. This marks her third career All-UAA honor, previously being tabbed to the First Team as a sophomore, Second Team as a junior and earlier this fall, she was tabbed to her first-ever CoSIDA Academic All-District Team.
