ABILENE, Texas- Graduate goalkeeper Landry Combs and senior midfielder Abbie Wetzel earned one last accolade to end their time at Howard Payne, as both were named to the American Southwest Conference All-Tournament Team. Combs and Wetzel set the standard for the Howard Payne women's soccer team, as both players were two of the three captains armband this season for the Lady Jackets.

Landry Combs earns the honor after keeping a clean sheet in 1-0 win in extra time over the Schreiner University Mountaineers in the ASC Quarterfinals. The Midlothian, Texas native made five saves in the match to keep the clean sheet intact for the Lady Jackets, which included two saves in the second half, and 11 saves in the 3-1 loss to Hardin-Simmons University in the ASC Semifinals.

Landry Combs ends her career at Howard Payne as the Lady Jackets' all-time winningest goalkeeper and record holder in shutouts, both feats which where accomplished in the 1-0 win over East Texas Baptist University at the Citizens National Bank Soccer Field on September 26. Comb's records now sit at 20 wins and 15 shutouts during her three seasons as a member of HPU's women's soccer program.

Abbie Wetzel received the honor after being a significant offensive contributor during Howard Payne's two conference tournament matches. The Royse City, Texas native scored HPU's goal in the 1-0 win extra time over Schreiner and the opening goal in the 3-1 defeat to Hardin-Simmons in the ASC Semifinals. In the two tournament games, Wetzel had four shots and three shots on goal.

During the 2026 season, Abbie Wetzel was named to the ASC Second Team All-Conference. Even though the Lady Jackets didn't see the return show up on the scoresheet, Wetzel still provided a spark on the offensive end for the Lady Jackets. Wetzel had 25 shots, 10 shots on goal, two assists and one goal in the 17 regular season games she played during her senior season.
