The RMAC Player of the Year was also a consensus First-Team All-American tying for the national lead in scoring as only the second player in program history to reach 20 goals in a season. Campos had a postseason hat trick against Adams State in the RMAC Tournament among six multi-goal matches overall. In addition to her all-America awards, Campos was the D2CCA South Central Regional Player of the Year, First-Team All-RMAC, and a member of the RMAC All-Tournament team.

Mines' first women's indoor national champion on the track, Ramsey-Rutledge set the D-II all-meets 5K record of 15:40.98 during the 2025 season on her way to earning RMAC Co-Track Athlete of the Year honors and the national title. Outdoors, she was the national silver medalist in the 10,000m and finished fifth in the 5,000m at the NCAA Championships after capturing the RMAC title on her home track in the 5K. Ramsey-Rutledge was selected as a First-Team Academic All-American after the season. Ramsey-Rutledge shared the Pacesetters of the Year award with fellow national champion Helen Braybrook of CSU Pueblo.
