Aspuru adds an All-Met First Team on top of several accolades from the 2021-2022 season. The senior was also named the East Coast Conference Defensive Player of the Year for the second consecutive season and collected her first All-ECC First team selection. The Farmingville native finished the season third in the East Coast Conference in scoring, averaging 16.5 points per game. While being a part of a stout defense, the senior blocked a career-high 52 shots and added 50 steals to her resume.
After joining Aspuru on the ECC First-Team, Lee, earns her first All-Met selection on the second team. The graduate student eclipsed the 1,000 career points mark earlier in the year against Division I opponent Hofstra. To cap her successful season, Lee averaged 12.8 points and 8.5 rebounds per game, 44 blocks, 38 assists, and 35 steals.
Muller turned in a productive junior season, earning ECC First-Team honors and now adds his first All-Met Second Team selection to his resume. Muller averaged 14.4 points per game good for seventh in the ECC and finished sixth in rebounding, pulling down 6.3 rebounds per game. The forward collected six double-doubles on the season and topped double-digit points in 20 of 24 games he appeared in.
