Devon Russell, who plays defense for the Buffalo Bulls women's soccer team, has received the honor of being named to the All-MAC Conference Second Team.
Although she was named to the first team last year, being honored two years in a row is, nevertheless, a great accomplishment.
The announcement was made at the 2002 MAC Women's Soccer Tournament Banquet on Nov. 7 in Oxford, Ohio.
The team is winless in its last seven games after losing last night 2-0 on the road to the Carolina Hurricanes. The Sabres ended their six-game road trip with an 0-4-2 record.
Jeff O'Neill scored at 17:43 of the first period for Carolina. Craig Adams scored at 17:46 of the third period to ice the game for the Hurricanes.
The Sabres return home to play the Atlanta Thrashers Saturday at 7 p.m. in HSBC Arena.
