He topped the GLVC in assists per game (2.50), is second in points per game (5.40) and is eighth in goals per game (2.0). Simonson has recorded at least two points in every game this season, and he fired in the game-winning goal in overtime during the quarterfinal contest at No. 2 seed Limestone.

He has added five goals and five assists to the offensive attack.
 
Cerett ranks fourth on the team with 41 points on 20 goals and 21 assists. The senior attacker had two assists in the GLVC title game against Lewis, and recorded a hat trick in the NCAA Tournament romp at Anderson. Cerett has picked up at least one point in 17 of 18 games this season. Chorlton, who was the Great Lakes Valley Conference Defender of the Year, led the efforts for the best scoring defense in the GLVC and one that ranks eighth nationally. The junior led the league in GLVC games in ground balls (31), ground balls per game (6.2), while placing second in caused turnovers (11) and caused turnovers per game (2.2). Chorlton has amassed 34 CTs to go along with 73 ground balls overall this season. In addition, he scored four goals and chipped in a pair of assists.
