Rajotte, also a fourth-year centre, earns her second RSEQ all-star honour. The Markham, Ont. resident scored 11 tries in seven games.
Thompson, a third-year No. 8 from Ste. Anne de Bellevue, Que., earns her first all-star recognition. She was the leading scorer on the Stingers with 12 tries for 60 points in seven games.
The Stingers will travel to Quebec City to meet the second-place Laval Rouge et Or (6-1) on Saturday. The RSEQ semifinal game gets under way at 1 p.m.
