Clemons, a four-year starter splitting time as a center back and midfielder, is a two-time NSCAA all-region honoree claiming second-team honors last season and was a third-team selection last season.
The Odessa native closed a solid collegiate career with nine goals and 18 assists. She was a first-team Daktronics all-region performer and a four-time all-league selection.
Pritchard enjoyed a breakout campaign leading the Mustangs with 10 goals and five assists this season. The Whitehouse product was a first-team Daktronics all-region and All-LSC performer.
Whitworth earned LSC Goalkeeper of the Year accolades earlier this season after leading the conference with a 0.63 goals against average while posting eight shutouts.
Staley, a Daktronics second-team All American and LSC Defender of the Year, anchored a solid back line as the Mustangs recorded 10 clean sheets this season.
Junior striker
Kelsey Hill gained second-team honors after scoring 10 goals and dishing out six assists this season.
Midwestern State claimed its first regular season LSC championship since 1998 and advanced to the NCAA Division II postseason for the first time in school history. The Mustangs finished an historic season with a 16-4 record.
