She also led the Blossoms in rebounding at 7.5 boards per game, and put together a total of nine double-doubles, which includes one game with double-digit points and assists.
Throughout the year, Goforth was the No. 1 scorer in the nation for five straight weeks, and has spent the last 14 weeks of the year ranked in the top 10.
Goforth is the all-time leading scorer in the GAC with 1,803 career points. She ended her UAM career ranked fifth all-time in scoring in program history.
