Team Most Valuable Player Kourtney Kutscher was joined by Laura Pimienta and Ashly Martinez on the Desert Conference Best XI announced by the Women’s Premier Soccer League this week.
Kutscher helped power FC Tucson to a 3-1-3 record, and her performance on both offense and defense earned her the team’s top honor.
Laura Pimienta was selected to the all-star team for the second season in a row. The team’s defender of the year, Pimienta also led FC Tucson in assists.
First year player Ashly Martinez, FC Tucson’s offensive player of the year, was selected to the all-conference team as a forward.
