Hall of Fame
The season before Amy Horneck joined Monmouth’s women’s soccer program, the Fighting Scots didn’t win a game. By the time her career ended, the Scots posted a then-record 11 victories in 2005 and made their first-ever Midwest Conference playoff appearance.
Horneck contributed mightily to the Scots’ surge, earning first team All-MWC honors each of her four seasons by scoring 18, 13, 15 and 20 goals, respectively. That totaled a school-record 66, more than doubling the previous mark, and she also set the career assists record (31).
As a junior, Horneck was voted one of the conference’s co-Offensive MVPs. As a senior, her two goals in a 2-0 win over perennial power Lake Forest helped secure the historic playoff berth, and she was a second team academic All-American.
A speedster on the soccer pitch with a booming shot with either foot, Horneck’s athleticism was also on display in track, where she was a two-time MWC triple jump champion.
