Cabrera ended her season with a team and WCAC-high 268 kills, good for 5th in the area overall, according to the Washington Post. She also recorded 276 digs, good for a 16th best in the metro area.
The 5th seeded Cardinals ended their conference schedule with a pair of setbacks, to top ranked Holy Cross 3-0 on Senior Day at Bishop Ireton, then fell in three on the road to fourth-seeded St Johns in the opening round of the WCAC playoffs.

Bishop Ireton concluded the campaign with a respectable 17-14 mark overall, 7-9 in the always challenging WCAC. The season saw the team garner a pair of runner-up second place finishes in tournaments in Virginia and battle injuries to a number of starters that made tough schedule more difficult.
