Three Bronchos Earn All-Region Honors

WARRENSBURG, Mo. – The University of Central Oklahoma soccer team had three players selected to the 2021 Division II Conference Commissioner's Association All-Region teams.
 
Taryn Kedzior and Monika McGee were both named First Team All-Region for the Central Region and Kaitlyn Asher was named Second Team All-Region.
 
"We are very proud of these three," UCO head soccer coach Mike Cook said. "Taryn and Monika were our captains this year and they played great. Kaitlyn came back for a fifth-year after her senior year was canceled and she played great too. We were very fortunate to have these three. We were able to have a lot of success because of them."
 
Kedzior is a two-time All-Region selection, having earned First Team honors as well in 2018. This season, the Claremore, Oklahoma native was named First Team All-MIAA in addition to earning the league's Defensive Player of the Year award. Kedzior scored seven goals and had three assists to help the offense and led a defensive charge that resulted in 12 shutouts for Central Oklahoma this fall.
 
McGee earned All-Region honors for the first time in her career and is the only sophomore to earn First Team honors in the Central Region. The Moore, Oklahoma native led UCO with nine goals scored and she also had one assist. McGee took 48 shots from her midfield position and exactly half of those were shots on goal.
 
Asher is also a first time pick for All-Region. After having the 2020 season canceled, she returned to end her career on her own terms, and she was named MIAA co-Goalkeeper of the Year following this season. Asher played 1,720 minutes in goal for the Bronchos this fall. She made 73 saves and had a 0.94 goals against average. Asher had eight of 12 UCO shutouts all to her credit and she played in each of the 12 shutouts the team managed this season.
 
Central Oklahoma went 13-5-3 in 2021, earning the No. 4 seed in the MIAA's postseason tournament. The Bronchos made the conference championship semifinals before earning an at-large bid to the national tournament. UCO tied Bemidji State in the opening round before losing a penalty kick shootout to end its season after a 14th trip to nationals.
