With the women's season concluded, TopDrawerSoccer presents the postseason player rankings. Here are the top 100 players based on every kick from August to December.

1. Kate Faasse, North Carolina(w) - Finishing the year as just the fourth 21st-century player to win a championship while leading the nation in goals sends a message of its own. Then consider that 8 of those 20 goals were game-winners, tied for the NCAA DI lead, and you have a player that delivered immense quality and quantity.

2. Caiya Hanks, Wake Forest(w) - Hanks was uncontainable all year as one of two NCAA DI players to finish with at least 11 goals and 12 assists. Often utilized as a one-woman attack, the opposition knew the Hawaii native was the focal point of the Wake Forest attack but were still unable to slow her down.

3. Lilly Reale, UCLA(w) - If not for an early exit in the NCAA tournament, Reale would have held on to her number one midseason ranking as a supremely gifted center back equally comfortable with the ball as without it. If the NWSL draft were still in operation, the UCLA defender would have likely been the No. 1 pick.

4. Taylor Huff, Florida State(w) - While the Seminoles failed to defend their national title due to the discontinuity of several injuries and star players leaving for the two youth World Cups, Huff kept the team afloat with class, scoring 12 and assisting another 10 for the ACC tournament champions. With the Ohio native, Florida State remained a respected national contender, without her, this team would have likely missed the ACC tournament.

5. Maggie Graham, Duke(w) - Saving her best for last, the grad student had an epic season filled with many legendary moments, such as scoring a hat trick to hand Stanford its first home loss since 2021 and leading the College Cup semifinalists in goals. Those 14 strikes also dwarf the eight Graham came into the year with, highlighting a star who peaked at the perfect time.
