TRAFFORD, Pa. – A trio of standouts earned selection to the 2025-26 All-Presidents' Athletic Conference Women's Basketball Teams, which were released Wednesday evening by the league.

The all-conference teams, as well as the PAC's yearly award winners, are determined by vote of the league's 12 head coaches.

Graduate student guard Riley DeRubbo (Washington, Pa./Trinity) and junior center Katie Kovalchick (Shelocta, Pa./Indiana Area) earned First Team honors while senior guard Stellanie Loutsion (Canonsburg, Pa./Canon-McMillan) garnered Second Team all-league status. The formidable trio helped power the Presidents to their eighth PAC Tournament title this past Saturday in a dominant 64-43 road victory over Saint Vincent College. The victory secured the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. W&J will be making its 10th appearance in the NCAA Tournament.

DeRubbo led the Presidents in scoring (15.4 per game), rebounding (6.5 per game), and three-pointers made (58) this season. DeRubbo ranked second on the squad in assists (76) and third in steals (43). Among conference players, DeRubbo ranks fifth in scoring, second  in the PAC and 29th in the NCAA in free throw percentage (85.2 percent), fifth in three-point percentage (34.7 percent) and third in three-pointers made (58). DeRubbo scored in double figures 24 times this season and scored 20 points or more on five occasions. She twice posted a season-high 24 points including in the season opener against fellow NCAA Tourney qualifier Penn State Behrend on Nov. 10. She earned a spot on the PAC All-Tournament Team after averaging 16.0 points and five rebounds per game last week across the Presidents' three wins to secure the conference title. Earlier this season, DeRubbo became the first President since 2020 to be listed on the D3hoops.com Team of the Week.  

Kovalchick earns All-PAC honors for a second-straight season. After gaining a spot as Honorable Mention last year, Kovalchick turned her game up to another level this year to secure a spot on the First Team. The junior ranked second on the team in scoring (15.3 per game), finishing just three points behind DeRubbo. Kovalchick added 5.5 rebounds per game to go along with 51 assists, 32 steals and a team-high 31 blocks. Kovalchick ranks second in the PAC and 28th among all Division III players in Field Goal Percentage (52.5 percent). Despite not having a high volume of attempts from three-point range, she has converted at a 44.9 percent clip, making 22 of 49 attempts from distance. Kovalchick earned a spot on the PAC All-Tournament Team after posting 18.3 points and 6.7 rebounds per contest last week. Kovalchick posted a career-high 30 points at PAC runner-up Saint Vincent on Feb. 11.

The All-PAC honor is the third-straight for Loutsion, who averaged 14.1 points and 5.5 rebounds per game this season. The senior led the team with 55 steals, ranked second with 23 blocks and third with 61 assists. Loutsion continued to be one of the top free throw shooters in the country, converting at an 85.9 percent clip to rank 24th in Division III. Loutsion scored in double figures 24 times this season including scoring a season-high 26 points on two occasions – at Marietta (Nov. 21) and versus Waynesburg (Feb. 21). Loutsion earned PAC Tournament Most Outstanding Player honors after averaging 16.7 points and nine rebounds per game including posting a pair of double-double efforts last week.

Jaden Wan (Newtown, Pa./Council Rock) represented the Presidents on the PAC Sportsmanship Team.

W&J will face Illinois Wesleyan University on Friday (March 6) in the NCAA Division III First Round hosted at Hope College. The start time is scheduled for 6 p.m. in Holland, Mich.
