#6 Jocelyn Tanner

2024 WFA All-American

Jocelyn is from Ham Lake, MN. She started athletics at the age of 5 with recreational soccer. Her passion grew and eventually she continued to pursue her athletic career at South Dakota State University as a goalkeeper on the women’s soccer team. The Jackrabbits were very successful during her stint including 3 Summit League Tournament Championships and NCAA appearances. She acquired many accolades including Academic All-American, 2x Summit League Goalkeeper of the Year, 2x Summit League First Team, and D1 Statistical Champion in Goals Against Average. She accomplished all this while earning a BS in Mathematics, a BS in Data Science, and a MS in Mathematics with a specialization in Statistics.

Even though soccer will always have a special place in her heart, football was Jocelyn’s first love. Growing up a Packer fan made it easy to love the game. She is now a proud shareholder of the Green Bay Packers.

Outside of athletics Jocelyn enjoys watching sports, playing games, and doing puzzles.

#4 Kandace Bostick

2023 WFA All-American

Kandace Bostick is a talented athlete who spent her childhood moving around the Twin Cities area. She graduated from Burnsville High School before going on to play college basketball at RCTC, where she was part of the National Championship team in 2008-2009. Later, Kandace transferred to Augsburg College, where she competed in both basketball and track and field.

After college, Kandace joined the Vixen in 2013 for an outstanding rookie year before taking a break from athletics to serve in the Marine Corps from 2014-2019. Following her service, she returned to football, joining the Houston Power football team from 2021-2022. In 2023 she came back to the MN Vixen and was named to the WFA All-American team.

Despite never having the opportunity to play football earlier in her life, Kandace has always been drawn to the game. She loves the camaraderie and competitive spirit that everyone brings to the field, and she feels fortunate to be able to pursue her passion for the sport. Kandace is a skilled and determined athlete who inspires those around her with her dedication and hard work. The Vixen are thrilled to have her back on the squad for another year!

#0 Tiff Wright

For Tiff Wright, football is more than just a game. The Ark City, KS native sees it as a chance to grow your chosen family and always looks forward to playing football with her friends. Don’t let that approach convince you that Wright’s only in it for her social life’s sake. Wright has been a First Team All-American at both running back and strong safety in the WFA, adding another All-American season at running back in the WNFC. This success has gotten her a spot on the WFA International team, playing in Costa Rica, Columbia, Mexico, and Amsterdam.

Wright’s talents don’t exclusively lie in her pro career, though. In high school, Wright was a four sport athlete (basketball, volleyball, softball, track and field) and was a state finalist in javelin. Sports didn’t limit her, either, being a trombone player and drum major at the same time. Outside of her performing endeavors, Wright has three cats she adores and loves watching Kansas Jayhawk sports and the Kansas City Chiefs.
