WACO, Texas – Baylor soccer (8-5-6) collected two Big 12 honors, announced Tuesday afternoon by the conference office.

The Bears are represented on the All-Big 12 second team by forward Taylor Moon and defender Kayley Ables.

Ables helped lock down the field this year contributing to the Bears’ eight shutouts, four-straight in conference play. The senior collected her third Big 12 weekly award this season, as she picked up the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week honor for her work in back-to-back shutouts against Iowa State and West Virginia. She played all 200 minutes that week, holding Iowa State to just one shot on goal and the Mountaineers to just five.

Moon racked up four goals this season in her 16 games started. The senior opened conference play with a goal in the first three games, helping jumpstart the Bears’ 3-0 start where they picked up wins against Oklahoma State, No. 8 TCU, and Texas Tech. She had a season-high five shots on goal during a non-conference matchup against North Dakota State, where she also netted a goal in the Bears’ 4-0 shutout.

Baylor has now had at least one All-Big 12 selection for 10-straight seasons.
