Phillip, a junior from Saint Lucia who turned 21 last Sunday, scored 19 goals as the Wolfpack reached the NCAA championship game, which it lost to Washington in extra time.

Aikey, a 20-year-old senior from Palo Alto, California, scored 21 goals for Stanford, which lost the NCAA final to Florida. She signed Thursday with Denver of the NWSL.
