JACKSON, Mich. - On Monday, May 4, the Crossroads League announced its 2026 All-League honors, naming the First, Second, Honorable Mention, and Gold Glove Teams, along with the top honors of the year. Marian earned seven of the league's 44 total honors, led by outfielders Abbey Hofmann and Abby Madere, who were both named All-Crossroads League First Team. 

Marian's five honorees were Abbey Hofmann, Abby Madere, Mati Hughes, Delaney Rundle, and Macy Coan, as the quintet earned a combined seven All-League honors. 

Abbey Hofmann led Marian's individual honors, as the outfielder was named to the All-Crossroads League First Team and Gold Glove Team. Hofmann had a strong year at the plate, batting .404 while starting all 50 of the team's games as the starting centerfielder. As the lead-off, Hofmann is second on the team in doubles with 15, while leading the squad with six triples. Hofmann has four home runs and has batted in 37 runs, scoring 58 times herself. The junior leads the Knights in stolen bases with 29, and in the field, Hofmann has an outfield-best 100 putouts in addition to four assists, carrying a .981 fielding percentage. 

Joining Hofmann on the First Team was Abby Madere, who returned to the All-CL First Team in her final season after missing the honor as a junior due to injury. A three-time All-Crossroads League honoree (twice first team, once second team), Madere leads the Knights in batting as a senior with a .413 average, slugging .677 at the dish. Madere leads the team in RBI (60), doubles (18), and home runs (8), and, as a senior, has tied the career doubles record, recording her 66th career double this season. Madere has scored 40 times on the season and holds a .973 fielding percentage. 

Behind the Knights First Team duo was a trio on the Honorable Mention Team, as Macy Coan, Mati Hughes, and Delaney Rundle all earned the HM nod. Mati Hughes doubled up on the All-CL Teams, as the freshman was both an Honorable Mention recipient and a Gold Glove Team member. Hughes has a .301 batting average following the conclusion of the Crossroads League Tournament, while defensively carrying a .990 fielding percentage as both a catcher and third baseman. Hughes has 12 doubles and two home runs on the season, and is third on the team with 36 RBI. 

Delaney Rundle had a strong season as a near-every-game starter in left field, playing in 49 games as a freshman. Rundle is batting .376 out of the two-hole in the lineup, carrying 39 runs and five extra-base hits. 

Macy Coan completed the Crossroads League Tournament as Marian's top pitcher in the rotation, carrying a record of 17-4 on the season with an ERA of 2.75. Coan has appeared 23 times with 21 as a starter, and pitched 14 complete games. The junior recorded three shutouts in 137.2 innings pitched and struck out 91 batters. 

In addition to the All-League honors, the CL announced the All-Tournament Team members on Monday morning. Macy Coan, Abbey Hofmann and Delaney Rundle each earned the honor from the team's run in the CL Tournament. 

Marian will learn their potential NAIA Opening Round destination on Wednesday, May 6, during the NAIA Selection Show, as the Knights are aiming to make the 2026 field as an at-large team. The NAIA Selection Show airs on YouTube, with the show released at 6:00 p.m. ET.
