D2CCA All-East Region Teams (PDF)

RINDGE, N.H. (November 29, 2021) -- Freshman Aino Martikainen (Järvenpää, Finland) of the Franklin Pierce University women’s soccer team has earned All-East Region Second Team honors from the Division II Conference Commissioners Association (D2CCA), as announced last week by the organization.

It is the first career All-Region selection for the Finnish export.

An All-Northeast-10 Conference First Team and All-Rookie Team selection earlier in the fall, Martikainen started all 17 games for the Ravens. She was part of a back line which allowed only 0.67 goals per game on the season. She also emerged as the team’s primary threat on set pieces, with three goals to show for it, including one game-winner, on 17 shot attempts.
