2019 All-PacWest Women's Soccer Team

IRVINE, Calif. – Coming off one of the most successful seasons in program history, Academy of Art women's soccer had a pair of players named to the All-PacWest Team on Tuesday, senior forward Anissa Wilson and junior midfielder Sydney Cooke. 

Anissa Wilson – All-PacWest First Team
In her final season as an Urban Knight, Wilson broke just about every scoring record in the books. Wilson started with the single-season goals record, which she broke just six matches into the season against William Jessup on Sept. 18 with her eighth goal. It also gave her the single-season points record at 17. Later in the season, Wilson became the career-goals leader with the 19th of her career which passed Hannah Emmett's record set in 2013, and brought her season point total to an astonishing 28. Her career point total moved up to 42, just one shy of tying the ART U career points record. For the second straight year she also set the single-season game-winning goals record. Wilson knocked-in four game-winners in 2019 to raise her career total to seven, the most in program history. By the end of the season, Wilson had scored 13 goals and collected two assists. The senior forward was honored twice throughout the season as PacWest Player of the Week on Sept. 9 and Sept. 16. This is Wilson's second career All-PacWest accolade after being named All-PacWest Third Team last season. 

Sydney Cooke – All-PacWest Third Team
Cooke's junior campaign was the best of her already impressive career at Academy of Art. She collected a career-high 13 points on four goals and five assists. Her 13 points and four goals were second highest on the team, while her five assists led ART U, and marked the second most assists in a single-season in program history. Cooke's final assist of the season was the 10th of her career and broke the ART U career-assists record set in 2012. This is Cooke's first career All-PacWest award.
