Her team finished third in the league in scoring (13.81 goals per game) and second in goals allowed (8.56).

Drain established herself as one of the premier defenders in the conference in her first season of play. She ended the regular season ranked eighth in the CCC with 26 caused turnovers and ninth in the conference with 43 ground balls. She was selected as CCC Rookie of the Week back on April 1 after grabbing 10 ground balls and adding eight draw controls and four caused turnovers in a pair of wins for the Hawks.
Warren put together 49 points on 30 goals and 19 assists, ranking in the top 20 in all three offensive categories in the conference. Her 19 assists also puts her ninth in the CCC. She also added 18 ground balls and 11 caused turnovers.
Flahive scored 35 points on 25 goals and 10 assists for Roger Williams on the season. An accurate scorer, her .625 shooting percentage places her eighth in the CCC. She also added 46 ground balls and 22 caused turnovers, placing her seventh and ninth respectively in the CCC.

Nelson was one of the top goalies in the Commonwealth Coast Conference this season. She leads the CCC in winning percentage (.750), goals against (93), and goals-against average (8.20).
