By Oyediji Oluwaseun Babatunde
Midfielder Deborah Abiodun made the Second Team All-ACC alongside one of her teammates.
The Nigeria midfielder made the cut alongside University of Pittsburgh teammate, Sarah Schupansky.
The Super Falcons player led the Panthers with four goals in the ACC.
She scored four goals in four games in the league this year.
Last year, the former Rivers Angels player made the Third Team and All-Freshman Team in her debut season.
The same year, she was also nominated for the CAF Women’s Young Player of the Year after her wonderful performance at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
She played a pivotal role in helping the Super Falcons return to the women’s football event of the Olympics after 16 16-year hiatus.
Despite a group stage ouster at Paris 2024, Abiodun distinguished herself with the nine-time African champions.
