SACRAMENTO, CA (MPG) - Sacramento State junior midfielder Ellie Farber picked up her second career All-Big Sky Conference honor, named to the league's second team, according to a vote of the conference's head coaches released on Nov. 4.

Farber, who was also a preseason all-conference pick prior to the start of the campaign, was named to the league's postseason honor roll for the second consecutive season after picking up all-league honorable mention laurels, as well as a Big Sky All-Tournament Team award, as a sophomore in 2024.

The Redding native started 17 of the team's 18 matches during the 2025 campaign, finishing with a goal and a pair of assists to stand tied for fourth on the team in scoring with four points. Farber netted her lone goal of the season — and second career game-winner — as part of a 4-2 victory over San Jose State on Sept. 7, while adding assists in a 1-1 draw against Northern Arizona (Sept. 28) and a 5-0 victory over Eastern Washington (Oct. 5).

Now with four career scores and eight assists in her three seasons as a Hornet, she is just three helpers shy of breaking into the top 10 in school history on the career assist list.
