Galloway, N.J. - Six Stockton University women's soccer players were recognized with NJAC honors for the 2026 season. Senior
Tori Vliet (Marmora/Ocean City) headlined the group as she was voted NJAC Goalkeeper of the Year and NJAC First Team for her outstanding play in net.
Â
Senior
Erin Lally (Lumberton/Rancocas Valley) was chosen to the NJAC Second Team while seniors
Makayla Jaffe (Middletown/Middletown South),
Bella Bednarz (Keyport/Keyport) and
Kylee Reissek (Newfield/Delsea Regional) and sophomore
Kaylie Peacock (Hainesport/Rancocas Valley) were selected NJAC Honorable Mention.
Â
Reissek garnered her third straight NJAC Honorable Mention nod and Jaffe collected her second consecutive all-conference honor (2025 Second Team). Vliet, Lally, Bednarz and Peacock received NJAC accolades for the first time.
Â
Vliet has had a breakout season, leading the NJAC with nine shutouts thus far and ranking second in the conference in save percentage (.838), third in goals against (0.76) and sixth in saves per game (3.65 spg). The senior has started every game and totaled 62 saves in 1,429 minutes played.
Â
Vliet fashioned scoreless streaks this season of 443 minutes and 240 minutes without allowing a goal. She set a career high with 14 saves against #4 Rowan on October 21. Vliet became the third Osprey to achieve NJAC Goalkeeper of the Year honors (Nicole Pallante 2015, Sarah Hinkle 2012).
Â
Lally not only has been a stalwart on the defense, but she leads the Ospreys in scoring with nine points on three goals and a team-high three assists. The senior has started all 17 games and played 1,444 of a possible 1,530 minutes. Lally has contributed defensively in 10 shutouts and scored the first three goals of her career.
Â
Jaffe and Reissek are tied with Lally for the team lead with three goals each, with Reissek adding an assist for seven points. Jaffe ranks sixth in the NJAC in shot attempts (2.86/game). Reissek has started all 17 games for the Ospreys. Jaffe and Reissek scored game-winning goals in 1-0 victories over Kean and Rutgers-Camden respectively.
Â
Bednarz has been solid in the midfield, totaling one goal and one assist for three points while playing the strong defense that has been the hallmark of her career. The senior potted the game-winning goal with 8:02 remaining to lift Stockton to a 1-0 victory over Rutgers-Newark on October 7.
Â
Peacock, the lone underclassman in the group, has been a welcome addition on defense this season. The sophomore has started 16 of the 17 games at left back, joining Lally and the defense corps in stifling opponents to a miniscule 0.71 goals against average and 10 shutouts.
