Moeller averaged 14.2 ppg. and dished out 4.2 assists and added 3.60 steals per game this season as the Flyers went 15-5 in the regular season.
Moeller was joined by backcourt mate Rachel Thobe on the first team. Conference champion Minster placed three players on the first team with Karen Brackman, Robyn Hoying and Bridget Slokosky making the list.
