Cougars earn All-Conference honors
The Barton County Community College women’s soccer team put three players on the All Jayhawk Conference teams. Elaine Fontes and Robin Reidle were named to the First Team, while Regina Zink was voted onto the second team. The Cougars turned in a great year, breaking many individual and team records. Barton finished the season with a record of 8-7-1, ending with a loss to Hutchinson in the first round of the Region VI playoffs. Barton ended the season 3rd in the Jayhawk Conference.

Elaine Fontes
Elaine turned in of the best single seasons in Barton history. She broke many scoring records, despite her season being cut short by a knee injury. With 49 points, she now holds the career and single season mark, along with her 23 goal mark this year. Elaine also recorded 10 points and 5 goals in a single game, breaking those records as well. She did all that in just 12 games on the field this season.

Coach Jared Wilbanks comments on Fontes – “Elaine is an extremely gifted player and is very deserving of the first-team selection. She has broken many of the schools scoring records in only her first season as a Lady Cougar, along with that she also has the ability to change a game single handedly; which is a dangerous thing in the women’s game.”

Robin Reidle
Robin has been a solid player throughout her Barton career. She used experience and leadership to bring herself to the top of her game this season. Robin also added her name to many of the lists in Barton’s record book. She finished her career with 33 points and 14 goals, good for fourth on both record lists. Reidel has the Barton record for most goals in a game with 4 at one point this season before teammate Fontes broke that record.

Coach Jared Wilbanks comments on Reidle – “Robin is a solid player and a hard worker on the practice and game fields. She was a team captain and a leader by example for the team this year; I am looking forward to seeing her move on and excel at a four year university.”

Regina Zink
Regina earned 2nd team All-Conference honors this year with a solid all-around season. She battled through injuries and played tough all season long for the Cougars. Regina placed herself fifth on Barton’s record for career points and goals, finishing up with 30 points and 12 goals.

Coach Jared Wilbanks comments on Zink – “Regina is a skilled player who is also extremely tough. She played the majority of the season with a lower leg injury and still managed to score 8 goals and proved to pester opposing defenses.”

As a team, the Cougars were outstanding. All around, they broke team and individual records in points, goals, shots, and assists for career, season, and single game marks. The team finished with 51 goals on the season and 123 points, setting school records in those categories. The 2005 Cougars also finished 2nd all-time in assists with 21, falling shy of the record of 25 set in 2003.
