Vendegh earned the honors after rolling up 36 points on 15 goals and six assists. The sophomore forward was also named the CAA Player of the Year as he helped the Monarchs capture their second regular-season conference championship in three years under head coach Alan Dawson.
Joining Vendegh on the VaSID first-team was senior midfielder Carlos Mendes (Mineola, NY), who was a repeat selection from last year.
For the women, seniors Jen Henley (Chalfont, PA) and Andi Rowe (Fairfax, VA) were repeat selections from last season, earning first team honors. Both players were also first-team All-CAA selections.
