HADLEY, Mass. – The New England Small College Athletic Conference announced its award recipients for the 2021 women’s track & field season.
Danielle Page of Tufts won the Sabasteanski Award as the NESCAC Women’s Track & Field Most Outstanding Performer, while fellow Jumbo
Lia Rotti was named the NESCAC Most Outstanding Rookie. The Sabasteanski Award is named in honor of the late Frank Sabasteanski, who graduated from Bowdoin and later led the cross country and track and field programs at the college for 28 years.
Page, a junior from North Andover, Mass., is the top-ranked performer in the conference and in New England in the 5,000 and 10,000-meter events. Page is the fifth Jumbo to win the award (Logan Crane - 2009; Kelly Allen - 2011 & 2013; Alexis Harrison - 2015 & 2016, Annalisa DeBari - 2018).
Rotti, a sophomore from Danville, Vt., has the top mark in the NESCAC in the javelin and ranks second in the pole vault, long jump, and triple jump this season. Rotti is the fourth Jumbo to be named NESCAC Rookie of the Year (Logan Crane - 2007; Kelly Allen - 2010; Christina Harvey - 2012).
The
Tufts women’s track & field coaching staff, led by
Kristen Morwick, was voted the NESCAC Women’s Track & Field Coaching Staff of the Year by their peers for the second time since 2013.
In lieu of no NESCAC Championship meet being held this spring, the 2021 All-NESCAC performers were determined based on cumulative results from meets held through May 9. The individuals with the top three marks in each event listed on the NESCAC Outdoor Track & Field Performance List provided by TFRRS.org were deemed all-conference performers.
