Alyssa Williamson was named a Canada West first team all-star.
The third-year UBC goalkeeper — who played her youth soccer with Langley FC before joining the Vancouver Whitecaps U18 Elite Girls program and is a R.E. Mountain graduate — was the 2011 Canada West rookie of the year and a second team all-star that same season.
Williamson started eight of the 12 games for the Thunderbirds this past season and went 4-1-3 with five shutouts, a .620 goals against average and a .815 save percentage.
UBC (8-1-3) faces Alberta (9-1-2) in one of the Canada West Final Four championships being hosted by first-place Victoria.
The other semifinal has the Victoria Vikes (10-2) facing the Trinity Western Spartans (8-1-3).
The winners will play for the Canada West gold medal and both also advance to the Canadian Interuniversity Sport national championships.
