POPLARVILLE, Miss. — The latest batch of postseason awards have been announced, and a trio of Pearl River women's soccer players have been named United Soccer Coaches Scholar All-Americans.

Mackenzie Winters (Ocean Springs) was named First Team, Ann Maris Ragan (Flowood; Hartfield Academy) earned Second Team and Iben Madsen (Gulfport) grabbed a Third Team honor.

Winters had a 3.80 GPA on the Health Science and Nursing pathway. Ragan had a 3.98 GPA on the Education pathway. Madsen finished with a 3.81 GPA on the Health Science and Nursing pathway.

"I'm really proud of these girls for this achievement," head coach Henrik Madsen said. "They are a great reflection of our program as a whole when it comes to the exceptional academic standards that they have set for the team."

MACKENZIE WINTERS
It was a year to remember for Winters as she excelled as the leader of Pearl River's defense. The sophomore started all 19 games for the Wildcats, helping them earn an impressive 1.04 goals-against average, which ranked 13th-best in the NJCAA. Winters and the Wildcats ended the year with eight clean sheets.

Winters also got involved in the attack with an assist.

She was previously named First Team All-MACCC, All-Region 23 and Second Team NJCAA All-America.

ANN MARIS RAGAN
Ragan was a true threat in front of the net all season long. The team captain wrapped up the 2023 campaign as Pearl River's leading scoring, bagging an impressive 13 goals, which included three game-winners.

She also had one assist on the year.

IBEN MADSEN
Madsen dealt with injuries throughout the 2023 campaign but still made a difference when on the field. A versatile option, Madsen saw time at the top of the formation, at defensive midfield and along the backline. 

She ended her sophomore campaign with one goal and one assist.
