Players who earned first-, second- or third-team All-Greater Middlesex Conference recognition from the Home News Tribune at the end of last season were nominated for Preseason Player of the Year.

We'll write a feature story about the top vote-getter, so make your votes count.

The poll closes on Sept. 5.

SABRIA GLASGOW, EAST BRUNSWICK

Glasgow scored two goals in last year’s GMC Tournament final to lead the Bears to their 33rd county title in program history. The senior scored 18 goals and added eight assists for the year. A dynamic forward, Glasgow’s ability to find the back of the net is uncanny.

GABBY D’EMILIO, WOODBRIDGE

D’Emilio took over as the prime scoring threat for the Barrons last year and was dominant, registering 11 assists and a career-high 22 goals. With 57 goals scored under her belt, D’Emilio looks to lead the Barrons once again during her senior swan song.

MYA STOLARSKI, METUCHEN

In an impressive sophomore campaign, Stolarski scored 24 goals and tallied 16 assists. The junior will look to take her game to a new level this fall.

ELIZABETH GIRVAN, HIGHLAND PARK

Girvan has dominated in the Gold Division at the central midfield position. The senior tallied 24 goals and 18 assists a season ago and figures to once again fuel the Owls’ offensive attack

KAITLYN ZEEB, PISCATAWAY

The midfielder burst onto the scene as a freshman last year with 14 goals and six assists. The promising youngster is expected to elevate her game to a new level during her sophomore year.

JENNA SHEEDY, BISHOP AHR

With the Trojans owning a balanced scoring attack, Sheedy was able to separate herself as one of the best offensive players on Bishop Ahr. The junior tallied 10 goals and eight assists last year.

MIA REYES, WARDLAW-HARTRIDGE

Reyes scored 10 times last fall but more impressively dished 21 assists with her precise passing. The senior has 44 career assists, the most all-time in Wardlaw-Hartridge history.

PAIGE GANDY, MONROE

The senior midfielder scored 10 goals in 2016 and will be one of the leaders on a Falcon squad that looks to have a major comeback season after going 8-11-1 last fall.

GENNYKA LIEBENTHAL, MONROE

Liebenthal emerged as a dominant scoring threat, scoring 17 goals for the Falcons last season. The senior has scored 29 goals for her career.

TAYLOR MUCE, MONROE

A staunch presence on the backline, Muce separated herself as one of, if not the best, defender in the GMC.

KELLY SILVA, COLONIA

Silva was the anchor of the Patriot defense last season, making 227 saves and recording five shutouts.

SERENA ZILLI, J.P. STEVENS

The senior defensive captain for the Hawks, Zilli commands strong leadership on the field.

CAITLYN SHANNON, J.P. STEVENS

The senior tallied 12 goals and three assists last season and will continue to be a dangerous scoring threat during her final high school season.
