KANSAS CITY – Russell Sage College Women's Soccer defender Courtney Bush (Schenectady, NY/Mohonasen) earned All-Region honors from the United Soccer Coaches for the second-straight season.
Bush, the anchor of the RSC defense, was voted fourth-team All-Region and second-team All-Empire 8 Conference. The three-time All-Conference performer helped the Gators rank third in the E8 with a 0.89 goals-against average and tally six clean sheets this fall.
"Courtney's presence on the field has been a game-changer for us," said Head Coach Garrett Cobb. "As a leader in our defense, she's consistently set the standard with her performance and commitment. Making All-Region reflects her incredible impact on our program, and we're grateful for all she brings to our team each day."
RSC (6-7-5/5-3-3 E8) made the E8 Championship Tournament for the fifth time in program history, including in each of the past three years. The Gators fell 1-0 at Nazareth in the Quarterfinals.
