Liza Blue, Garrison Forest
On a Grizzlies team that was solid from end to end, the sophomore midfielder played a pivotal role in helping it to the Interscholastic Athletic Association of Maryland A Conference championship.
Blue showed exceptional poise and field presence for an underclassman. Transition was her game, and she combined strong defensive instincts with a precision passing game that sparked the Grizzlies' offense.
Coach of the Year
Traci Davis, Garrison Forest
The Grizzlies had come close but until this year had not won a championship since 1995. With a young team powered largely by a host of talented sophomores, Davis turned what could have been a rebuilding season into a championship season.
