Five soccer players from Monsignor Edward Pace High School's girls soccer team were nominated to The Miami Herald’s All-Dade teams. Yasbec Sosa, a senior, named to the All-Dade Third Team, is the captain and goal keeper. 

Sosa had an outstanding year and led the team to district semi-finals with her outstanding leadership and defensive play. She was also selected to the All-Dade All Star Team and the Dade-Broward All Star game. She will be signing with Wheaton College of Massachusetts in the coming weeks. 

Juliette Dubon, a sophomore, named to the All-Dade First Team, is the co-captain and center midfielder. She led the team in scoring for the second year in a row with 24 goals and 17 assists. Despite being a sophomore, Juliette has earned the respect of her teammates, not only because of her talents, but also her leadership abilities. She is currently on track to become Pace's all-time leading scorer for soccer. 

Elizabeth Alvarez, a junior, received her nomination as an All-Dade Honorable Mention because of her outstanding defensive play which did not permit a goal to be scored from her side in 9 games this year. 

Aida Rivera, a sophomore, also received Honorable Mention honors. Despite being out part of the year with injuries, her penalty kick against Mater Lakes in the District playoffs guaranteed the victory. 

Jenny Darbouze, a junior, received another Honorable Mention for her solid team play all year. During the playoffs, she was moved from her regular position and helped the team assure victory.
