OREM—Five Utah Valley University women's soccer players have been named to the 2025 United Soccer Coaches NCAA Division I All-Pacific Region teams, the organization announced Tuesday. Graduate forward Faith Webber and senior forward/midfielder Ruby Hladek earned first-team honors, while junior forward Nixan Jackson, junior defender Mia Owens and senior defender Taylor Nelson were each named to the second team.

The five selections highlight another successful season for the Wolverines, who finished 14-5-3, captured their fourth straight WAC regular-season title and earned an at-large berth to the NCAA Tournament. Utah Valley ranked among the nation's most dangerous offensive teams, finishing second nationally in total points (210) and points per game (9.55), and third nationally in scoring offense (3.18), total goals (70), shots per game (22.27) and shots on goal per game (10.41). The Wolverines' season concluded with a heartbreaking 2-1 double-overtime loss at No. 12 Colorado in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament.

Webber concluded her UVU career as the most accomplished goal scorer in program history. She broke her own single-season records with 22 goals and 48 points while ranking among the nation's elite in every major scoring category. She finished first nationally in total goals (22), first in shots per game (6.82), first in shots on goal per game (3.14) and third in total points (48). She also finished second nationally in game-winning goals with seven. Webber earned First Team All-WAC and WAC All-Tournament Team honors and was named to the College Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team.

Hladek earned her first-team all-region selection after producing 15 goals and 13 assists during one of the most productive attacking seasons in UVU history. She ranked sixth nationally in total assists (13), eighth in total points (43) and 11th in assists per game (0.59). Hladek was named the WAC Offensive Player of the Year, earned First Team All-WAC honors and was selected to the WAC All-Tournament Team. She also earned College Sports Communicators Academic All-District recognition. Her 32 career assists make her Utah Valley's all-time assist leader.

Jackson continued her ascent as one of the WAC's most dynamic forwards, finishing with five goals and 10 assists while ranking among the national leaders in distribution. Her 10 assists ranked 17th nationally. She earned First Team All-WAC honors after playing a central role in one of the nation's highest-scoring offenses.

Owens, the WAC Defensive Player of the Year, anchored a UVU back line that recorded seven shutouts and held opponents to just over a goal per match. She started all 22 matches, added one goal and two assists and earned First Team All-WAC and WAC All-Tournament Team honors. Owens also earned College Sports Communicators Academic All-District recognition.

Nelson, a four-year starter on the UVU back line, started all 22 matches and logged more than 1,700 minutes. She contributed two goals and three assists while helping the Wolverines to seven shutouts on the season. Nelson earned Second Team All-WAC honors and was named to the College Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team.

With five all-region honorees, Utah Valley continues to solidify its standing among the premier programs in the West, powered by one of the nation's top scoring attacks and a defensive unit that delivered consistency throughout another postseason run.
