Cora Bolduc, Thornton Academy senior forward: Bolduc broke out this fall and tied with Sanford’s Reese Beaudoin for the SMAA lead with 21 goals while adding 10 assists. Her speed made her dangerous in attack, and her vision allowed her to finish with a school-record 26 career assists. She’ll play next at Bentley University.

Lizalyn Boudreau, Freeport senior midfielder: Boudreau’s stats — five goals and six assists —were modest, but they paled in comparison to her impact on the defensive side, where she was Freeport’s flyer on corners and its top defender in the circle. Her stick skills also allowed her to set up the Falcons’ offense.

Sydney Brunelle, Cheverus junior forward/midfield: Brunelle’s finishing and playmaking ability gave the Class A champion Stags another gear. She was equally adept at finding teammates as she was scoring herself, finishing the season with 14 goals and 13 assists, and she was particularly dangerous on corners. She’s committed to Bucknell University for lacrosse.

Abbie Derosier, Brewer senior goalie: The first goalie to win the Miss Maine Field Hockey award, Derosier wowed coaches with her competitiveness, athleticism and flair for highlight-reel saves. She notched five shutouts, held nine opponents to one or no goals, and stopped 92% of the shots she faced. She’ll play next at Assumption College.

Natalie Fournier, Old Town senior forward: Fournier was named the PVC Player of the Year while helping the Coyotes reach the Class B North semifinals. She recorded 29 goals and seven assists, and could score with a perfectly placed shot or by battling in traffic closer to the cage. She was also Old Town’s flyer on defensive corners.

Kali Judkins, Mt. Blue senior midfielder: Judkins scored 11 goals, dished out 13 assists and earned KVAC first-team recognition while leading the Cougars to the Class A North semifinals. She brought a hard hit, up to 60 miles per hour according to coach Julie Lajoie, and was the primary striker on corners and a key part of defensive corners.

Mia Mariello, Biddeford sophomore midfielder/forward: The supremely skilled Mariello provided elite scoring and ball-handling ability for the Tigers, and was at her best in big games against top opponents. The Tigers’ “catalyst,” according to coach Caitlin Tremberth, scored 14 goals and added 18 assists, and is at 35 goals for her career.

Grace Mayo, Skowhegan senior midfielder: Mayo was a finalist for the Miss Maine Field Hockey award after producing 15 goals and 14 assists, earning the KVAC Class A Player of the Year award. Few on the field could match her speed, and coach Paula Doughty praised Mayo’s stick skills and ability all over the field. She’ll pursue field hockey and track at Bates College.

Joey Pompeo, Cheverus senior midfielder: Our pick for Varsity Maine Player of the Year, Pompeo controlled games for the Class A champion Stags, constantly hovering around the ball and proving a daunting 1-on-1 matchup on offense and defense. She took on a scoring role this fall, putting in 16 goals to go with 13 assists. Pompeo will play next at Division I Sacred Heart.

Halle Tarbox, Belfast senior midfielder: Tarbox was the Player of the Year in KVAC Class B, and led Belfast to an undefeated season and a state championship with her two-way play. She had 10 goals and 12 assists, was the flyer on defensive corners and shooter on offensive corners, and marked the opponent’s top player on defense.

Celia Zinman, Yarmouth senior midfielder: The Western Maine Conference Player of the Year guided the Clippers to an undefeated regular season and the Class B South final. She was Yarmouth’s most dangerous playmaker and the focal point of its offense. She finished the season with 11 goals and 14 assists. She’ll pursue field hockey at Colby College.
