TOWSON, Md. – The Landmark Conference has announced its 2024 Women’s Soccer All-Conference awards, as nominated and selected by the league's 10 head coaches.
Offensive Player of the Year: Niamh Healy (University of Scranton)
Defensive Player of the Year: Hailey Scaff (Moravian University)
Rookie of the Year: Aileen Carr (University of Scranton)
Coaching Staff of the Year: University of Scranton
Niamh Healy made Landmark Conference history as just the second player to earn Offensive Player of the Year honors three times, joining Elizabethtown College's Lydia Lawson (2017–2019). A four-time All-Conference First Team selection, Healy led the league in goals (14), points (32), and game-winning goals (8), powering a Scranton offense that scored a conference-best 51 goals, 26 of which came in league play. The Royals will open NCAA Tournament play by hosting Marywood University on Saturday, November 16, at 1:00 p.m.
For the second year in a row, Hailey Scaff was named Defensive Player of the Year. Scaff anchored a Moravian backline that conceded just five goals in conference play and recorded 13 shutouts overall, including six in Landmark competition. She joins former Greyhound standouts Eileen Black (2012) and Lauren Bertucci (2017) in receiving this recognition.
Scranton’s Aileen Carr was named Rookie of the Year, marking the sixth time a Royal has earned the award. The only first-year player on the All-Conference team, Carr earned First Team honors by leading a Scranton defense that allowed a league-low six goals (three in conference) and recorded seven Landmark shutouts.
Head coach Colleen Pivirotto and assistant Blake Mullen were named Coaching Staff of the Year for the fourth straight season, guiding Scranton to a 17-1-2 overall record and a perfect 9-0 mark in conference play. This undefeated conference season is the Royals’ seventh in program history and their first since 2018.
