In all, the organization awarded 48 student-athletes from 24 programs the distinction of All-America.
 
McClure is the only All-American is the program's four-year history, earning IWLCA second-team accolades a season ago.
 
The Ancaster, Ontario product had a career year in 2019, locking up her second straight Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) Defender of the Year award, as well as her third consecutive All-GLIAC First-Team honors.
