Louisiana Tech’s Kalli Matlock was voted Second Team All-Conference USA, in an announcement made by the league office on Wednesday.
The fifth-year senior capped off a stellar career at LA Tech, one that saw the defender play in 78 career matches with 64 starts on the backline and a total of 35 points on 13 goals and nine assists.
The Shreveport native was one of only two Bulldogs to play and start in all 17 matches this season. She logged 1,289 minutes of action, going the distance in three matches while being part of four shutouts on the back line.
Matlock also tied for the team lead in both total points (six) and goals scored (three). She registered a multi-goal performance against Grambling State in non-conference action, netting both penalty kick conversions. She also notched a goal in CUSA play at UTEP.
This marks the first All-CUSA award for Matlock and the 13th Bulldog in program history to receive All-CUSA accolades.
