Hall of Fame
The 1999 Women’s Soccer Team made history as the first Maryville women’s team to earn an NCAA Tournament bid. The Saints finished the season with a stellar 14-3-1 record, including an unbeaten 6-0-1 mark in the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC). Under the leadership of SLIAC Coach of the Year Eric Delabar, the team had seven All-SLIAC selections, including three first-team honorees: Amy Bornfleth, Danielle Pfeiffer, and Jill Thielemier. Bornfleth was a two-time SLIAC Player of the Year, while Thielemier earned the conference Player of the Year honors in 1999. The team captured the SLIAC Tournament title with a 1-0 victory over Principia in the finals, advancing to the NCAA Division III Tournament.
