LANCASTER, PA - The 2005 All-Centennial Conference women's soccer team and conference academic honor roll, announced by the league on Tuesday afternoon, includes four players from Johns Hopkins. Senior Meg McIntosh (Los Angeles, CA/Brentwood) and junior Jessie McKenzie (Morristown, NJ/Morristown) earned a spot on the First Team, while senior Jen Goebel (Jericho, NY/Jericho) and junior Lindsey Kimura (Los Angeles, CA/Harvard-Westlake) received Honorable Mention honors.

All four of the Blue Jays named to the year-end all-conference team have earned league honors prior to 2005, with Kimura, McIntosh and McKenzie taking accolades for the second consecutive season. Additionally, three of the four have been previously been named to the league's academic honor roll (Goebel, Kimura, McKenzie), with McIntosh getting conference academic recognition for the first time.

McIntosh, the leading scorer for the Blue Jays in both 2004 and '05, has been named to the All-Centennial team in each of her four years at Hopkins. The senior forward was also first team all-conference as a sophomore in 2003. Twice, McIntosh has been a second-team all-conference performer, doing so as a freshman in 2002 and a junior in 2004. McIntosh has collected seven goals and five assists for 19 points this season, and is currently second all time in career goals with 34 and tied for second in career points with 77.

Sidelined for two weeks early in the season with an injury, McKenzie has come back to be the team's second leading scorer, totaling six goals and five assists for 17 points. McKenzie was named second-team all-conference in 2004, posting 19 points for the Blue Jays. The junior co-captain has 16 career goals, 10 assists for 42 points.

Kimura has been an all-conference selection in each of her three years at Hopkins, earning second-team honors as a freshman in 2003 and a first-team nod as a sophomore in 2004. She is a part of a Blue Jay defense that has allowed only 12 goals in 18 games, third in the Centennial Conference. Kimura has nine career goals and three assists for 30 points.

Goebel, a co-captain along with McKenzie, has started 13 games this season between the pipes for the Blue Jays, making 28 saves and posting a goals against average of 0.83, sixth in the Centennial Conference. Named first-team all-conference in 2005, Goebel has started 47 games in goal since 2003 for Hopkins and has 147 career saves.

Gettysburg junior Katie Myers was named 2005 Centennial Conference Player of the Year. Myers scored an insurance goal in a 2-0 Gettysburg win over Hopkins on Oct. 11.

The Blue Jays (14-3-1, 7-2-1) will open up Centennial Conference Tournament play on Saturday, Nov. 5 at 2 p.m. against Haverford in Carlisle, Pa. Hopkins is the tournament's second seed.
