For the third time in the past five years, the USC women's soccer team has landed five players on the Pac-12 All-Academic awards list. Three Women of Troy have nabbed back-to-back honors with this season's selection, as juniors Autumn Altamirano, Haley Boysen and Elizabeth Eddy have all earned Pac-12 All-Academic Honorable Mention for the second time. First-time honorees from the Trojan roster this season are senior Courtney Garcia and sophomore Jessica Musmanno, who also have picked up Pac-12 All-Academic Honorable Mention.

Altamirano and Boysen lead the pack with GPAs over 3.5. Altamirano holds a 3.52 as a psychology major, and Boysen stands at 3.51 as a communication major. That pair combined for three goals and three assists for the Women of Troy this season. Fellow junior Eddy provided a goal and three assists this year, holding a 3.14 GPA as a business major. Sophomore Jessica Musmanno got in on the scoring action this year with two assists, going along with her 3.28 GPA as a business major as well. Senior Garcia is on pace to graduate with a major in economics and a minor in business administration, as she holds a 3.03 GPA to go along with her eight career goals and three career assists as a Trojan.
