SIX WOMEN'S SOCCER PLAYERS NAMED TO 2024 CACC ALL-ACADEMIC TEAM

2024 CACC Women's Soccer All-Academic Team

Orangeburg, N.Y. (2/17/14)  Six members of the Dominican University New York women's soccer team have been named to the 2024 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) All-Academic Team as was announced yesterday by CACC Commissioner Dan Mara. The team contains 127 student-athletes representing all 12 women's soccer-playing institutions in the conference.

Sabine Sorensen was named to the team for the third-time in her career, while Madeline Friedman, Kelly Harris and Kaitlyn Zeeb earn their second All-Academic honors.  Nicholette Brunner and Nelly Arvidsson earn their first All-Academic accolades.

To be eligible for CACC All-Academic status, a student-athlete must possess a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.50 at the end of the immediately preceding term (may include summer for fall-sport participants), must be enrolled for at least two full-time semesters at his/her current institution, and must be a second-year student-athlete at his/her current institution. The CACC All-Academic Team was instituted during the 2004-05 academic year.

Georgian Court University led the conference by placing 19 women's soccer players on this year's All-Academic Team. Thomas Jefferson University, the 2024 CACC champion, claimed 18 honorees, and the University of Bridgeport rounded out the top three with 15 players recognized.

Among the honorees were eight student-athletes with perfect 4.00 GPAs – Bridgeport's Antia Lopez; Nicole Jenal of Felician University; Seanna Boan of Georgian Court; Kaitlyn Nolan from Goldey-Beacom College; Holy Family University's Karli Farrell; Jefferson's Kyra Lesko; Larissa Bluntschli of Post University; and Brianna Wons from Wilmington University. They were part of a group of 38 players on the list with GPAs of 3.90 or higher.

Sixty-three members of the All-Academic Team are repeat winners. Among that group are five-time honoree Megan Feehan of Caldwell University and four-time honorees Mariana Ferreira and Ashley Georgevich of Caldwell; Jenal from Felician; and Julia Yuhase of Wilmington. Twenty-six others were recognized for the third time.
