AMHERST, Mass. - Seven members of the University of Massachusetts field hockey team were named to the 2002 National Field Hockey Coaches Association National Academic Squad for accumulating an overall GPA of at least 3.30. The Atlantic 10 led all conferences with 67 student-athletes on the national academic team.
Receiving the honors from the Minutewomen are freshman Jaime Bawden (Penticton, British Columbia), senior Sarah Bohonowicz (South Deerfield, Mass.), freshman Patricia Borneo (Arima, Trinidad & Tobago), senior Kelly Craven (Reading, Mass.), sophomore Heather Kenney (Whitehouse Station, N.J.), sophomore Adrianne Monaco (Oxford, N.Y.) and freshman Katelyn Woolfrey (Somerset, Mass.).
Bohonowicz and Monaco were both honored for their academic achievements for the 2002 school year when they were named to the Atlantic 10 Academic All-Conference team on Nov. 18, 2002. Bohonowicz received the conference honor after she tallied 10 points on three goals and four assists for the Minutewomen last season. Monaco finished the year as UMass' third-leading scorer with nine points (four goals, one assist).
Bohonowicz and Monaco, along with Bawden, were also named to the 2002 Atlantic 10 Field Hockey All-Conference team. In her rookie season Bawden led the Minutewomen with 12 points on six goals for the season.
As freshmen, Borneo and Woolfrey made contributions to the Minutewoman line-up with Borneo recording her first career goal against West Chester and Woolfrey tallying an assist against La Salle. In her sophomore campaign, Kenney tallied a goal against La Salle, while Craven saw action against UConn and Rhode Island in her senior season.
Bohonowicz was also named to the NFHCA Academic Squad in 2000 and 2001, and Kenney and Monaco joined her on the national academic team last season.
