The 2005 Liberty League End-of-Season Awards, announced May 5.

2005 Liberty League Player of the Year
Molly Flanagan   Union
Senior Midfield (Simsbury, Connecticut)
Flanagan, the U.S. Lacrosse pre-season Player of the Year, is a two-time Liberty League Offensive Performer of the Week. She is the all-time leader in Union women's lacrosse history with 205 career goals and 278 career points, and is second all-time with 73 career assists. In the Liberty League she is ranked first in caused turnovers; second in goals, points, and shots; and third in assists and ground balls. Flanagan is ranked #10 nationally in caused turnovers.

2005 Liberty League Rookie of the Year
Christine Castellon   Vassar
Attack (Media, Pennsylvania)
Vassar's top offensive player as a freshman, Castellon led the Brewers in scoring with 41 goals and nine assists. Her 41 goals represents the fourth highest single-season mark in Vassar history. She was named the Liberty League Rookie of the Week twice and in overall statistics, she ranks third in the Liberty League in scoring (41/2.73) and total points (49) and fourth in points per game (3.33).

2005 Liberty League Coaching Staff of the Year
Judy Finerghty   Vassar
Judy Finerghty and assistant Kate Morris guided the Brewers to seven wins in the regular season, the most for Vassar since 1997 and more than double the 2004 season total. For the first time in 25 years, the Brewers won the annual Seven Sisters Tournament with wins over Mt. Holyoke, Wellesley, and Haverford. In Liberty League competition Vassar lost two games in overtime and two others by a single goal. The Brewers will play RIT in the New York State Tournament and a potential 8th win would be the second most since the program started keeping official records in 1992.
