BLOOMINGTON, Minn. – The Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) announced its award honorees for the 2025–26 women's hockey season on Monday.

The Saint Mary's women's hockey team had two players recognized on the All-Conference team following standout performances this year. Juniors Reese Heitzman and Celia Midtbo each earned All-Conference honors for the third consecutive season.

Defender Celia Midtbo (Minneapolis, Minn./Minneapolis) collected her third straight All-Conference selection after another strong season on the blue line. She finished third on the team in scoring with 13 points, tallying five goals, including one hat trick, and eight assists. Midtbo also led the team defensively with 57 blocked shots, establishing herself as one of the Cardinals' most reliable defenders.

Joining her on the All-Conference list was forward Reese Heitzman (Hermantown, Minn./Proctor-Hermantown), who led Saint Mary's in scoring with 16 total points on six goals and 10 assists. Heitzman also recorded two game-winning goals this season and improved on last year's honorable mention recognition.

Saint Mary's narrowly missed a playoff berth, finishing ninth in the conference with a 9-14-2 overall record and a 5-11-2 mark in MIAC play.
