The Glixman sisters are the youngest players selected to this year's first-team squad representing NCAA Divisions II, III and the NAIA. Selections were made without National Tournament statistics.

Cassi hit .410 on the season with 40 RBI's and was also named to the SLIAC First-Team All-Conference, earning NFCA First-Team All-Region honors as well. 

The Glixman sisters led Fontbonne to a 34-12 record, a SLIAC regular-season championship, SLIAC Tournament championship and a berth in the NCAA Div. III National Softball Tournament. The Griffins achieved their first win in the NCAA Division III National Tournament since 2005.
