Wisconsin Soccer Central

The first team of the All-Big Eight Conference girls soccer team is full of new faces, with just one repeat — and there was even change in that selection.

Madison Memorial junior Abby Beinlich was named to the top squad for the second straight year, only as a midfielder this season after being tabbed as a defender in 2008.

Beinlich was one of four players from the conference champion Spartans to make the first team, joining goalkeeper Katy Pilarzyk, sophomore defender Dana Robertson and senior forward Kendra Loch.

Loch moved up after being a second-team selection last spring, as did Madison La Follette sophomore forward Morgan La Plant. Loch also was one of only two seniors on the team, along with Madison West midfielder Kaylee Heller.

Verona sophomore defender Abby Juzwik was a first-teamer in the Wildcats' first season in the Big Eight; she made the All-Southern Badger Conference first team as a freshman.
