Pitcher Mackenzee Collins was named GNAC Newcomer of the Year and to the All-GNAC First Team along with infielder Kate Ronning.
As interim head coach in 2023, the WOU alum Boytz led the Wolves to the GNAC postseason after finishing fourth in the conference with an 11-13 record (22-30 overall). Five players earned all-conference honors, including a trio of All-GNAC Second Team players in pitcher Maddie Mayer and outfielders Katelyn McGough and Maddie Doig (pitcher Chelsea Smith and catcher Natalie Willoughby earned All-GNAC Honorable Mention).
As a senior in 2016, Boytz led the pitching staff with 25 starts and compiled a 13-8 record. Boytz registered 156.2 innings of work and carried a 2.64 ERA to earn All-GNAC honorable mention honors.
