PURCHASE, N.Y. – Following their 19-8 season that saw them advance to the Skyline Conference Championship semifinals, three members of the Manhattanville College women's basketball team have been recognized with All-Conference honors. Spencer Shore (Boca Raton, Fla./West Boca Raton) and Faith Johnson-Desilvia (Riverhead, N.Y./Riverhead) earned All-Conference Second Team honors, while Jenn Balzarini (Staten Island, N.Y./St. Joseph By The Sea) was appointed to the conference's All-Sportsmanship Team.

Shore capped off her phenomenal collegiate career this season by averaging 11.9 points and 4.8 rebounds per game. The graduate student guard hit 66 three pointers on the year, setting a new program single-season record while also bringing her career total to 195, the all-time record. Shore was named to the Skyline Conference's Weekly Honor Roll on three occasions this season, recognizing her efforts in that week's action. The Boca Raton product put together six games of 20 or more points throughout the campaign, including a career-high 24 in the Jan. 18 win over St. Joseph's (Long Island). Shore ended the season as Manhattanville's minutes leader, playing in more than 34 minutes per contest, and was the Valiants' second-leading scorer.

Johnson-Desilvia was Manhattanville's leading offensive producer this season, accounting for 12.1 points a game to the tune of 326 points for the year, her new season-high. The senior guard reached double-figures offensively in 20 of the team's 27 games. Johnson-Desilvia also accounted for five double-doubles on the season, including a 17 point, 13 board effort against Yeshiva on Jan. 30. Like Shore, she was a mainstay on the Skyline's Weekly Honor Rolls, earning four appointments throughout the season.

Balzarini was named to the All-Sportsmanship Team after a season full of bringing passion and energy to the team both on the bench and on the court. The senior guard saw action in ten games this season, but beyond her playing time was a key contributor to the Valiants' team dynamic. Balzarini greeted all the Manhattanville starters as they made their way to the court during pregame introductions for each contest, and treated both her teammates and opponents with respect all season long.
