Sporting a .780 save percentage, Rosier played well down the stretch helping lead the Statesmen to a spot in the UCAA Tournament. Rogers, a UCAA Rookie of the Week honoree, was an important part of Hobarts success. Showing constant improvement as the season continued, Rogers contributed four goals and an assist for the Statesmen. A veteran defender, Bome anchored a young back line this season. His skill and composure in the defensive third of the field were essential to the teams overall success.

A member of the Verizon Academic All-District I second-team, Klotz netted five game-winning goals for Hobart this season, the most in the league. Abroms was Hobarts second leading scorer with six goals and four assists. An attacking minded midfielder, Abroms was dangerous around the goal.

He started in all 19 games for the Statesmen, contributing three goals, including two game-winners.
