After another season ranked among the top girls soccer teams in the state, Highland Park ended its season with plenty of individual accolades, too.

Four HP players were recognized by the Texas Association of Soccer Coaches. All-region honors went to midfielder Maja Davison Lardner and defender Keller Matise. All-state selections included midfielders Quinn Cornog (first team) and EmJ Cox (second team).

Cornog was named the District 13-5A most valuable player by league coaches, with Lardner, Cox, and Amelia Stevens also earning superlatives. The Lady Scots won the district title and advanced to the Class 5A Region II final in the first season for head coach Jackie Hlavaty.

Postseason team awards went to Matise (overall MVP), Lardner (offensive MVP), Maddy McNeely (defensive MVP and Fighting Scot Award), and Ella Weathersby (Spirit Award).

HP also announced a quartet of team captains for the 2022 campaign, including Parker Hart, Kylie Bell, Elise Needleman, and Hattie Patterson.
