and 32 points, and scored four game-winning goals in leading the
Panthers to the top seed in the NESCAC Field Hockey Championship
tournament.
Senior back Molly Venter of NESCAC
champion Williams earned first-team recognition for the third
consecutive year. A four-year starter, she was the backbone of the
team which had two other first-team selections. Sophomore
midfielder Molly Jennings shut down opponents’ top players
and was joined on the first team by sophomore forward Tori Scott,
who shared the team scoring lead.
Sophomore goalkeeper Gillian
McDonald of Bowdoin received first-team recognition for the second
time in as many years after recording seven shutouts. Other repeat
first-team selections were sophomore forward Emily Huffman of
Connecticut College and senior midfielder Mairin Brady of Amherst.
Huffman, the 2000 NESCAC Rookie of the Year, scored 10 goals this
season. Brady was a two-year captain who led the Jeffs to the
conference title game.
Senior midfielder Allison Scaduto
and senior back Heather Nicholson of Bowdoin each received
first-team honors. Scaduto, a regional All-American last year, led
the Polar Bears in assists, while Nicholson was the team’s
top defender this season.
Rounding out the first-team
honorees were junior forward Abby Ouimet of Amherst and senior back
Marcia Ingraham of Colby. Ouimet scored 11 goals and assisted on
four others in the regular season. Ingraham scored eight goals and
made 10 defensive saves.
First-year forward Marissa
O’Neil of Bowdoin was named the 2001 NESCAC Rookie of the
