CLAUDIA LOMBARD - 1ST WOMEN’S SOCCER PLAYER INDUCTED IN DAVIDSON HALL OF FAME

The 18th group of inductees into the Davidson Athletics Hall of Fame were honored on Jan. 20, 2006, and it was a special group for the Davidson women's soccer program. Claudia D. Lombard ’96, one of four individ- uals to be honored that day, became the first-ever women's soccer player to be inducted. Lombard was a standout on the women’s soccer team as soon as she hit the field for the Wildcats in the fall of 1992. As a freshman, the native from Guilford, Conn. scored six goals and led the team with nine assists as the squad went 10-8-1. Lombard’s nine assists at the time were a sin- gle-season record and she would go on to match her career-high in assists two other times during her four-year playing career. The following year she was named the team MVP for the second straight year with a career-best 14 goals and again chipped in with nine assists for a career-high 37 points. Her 37 points still rank third most in a single-season. For her outstanding efforts during her sophomore campaign, Lombard became the program’s first-ever player to garner a spot on the All-South Region Division I Team. Women’s soccer became a Southern Conference sport in 1994, and Lombard helped Davidson enshrine their first year in the league with a season for the ages. After scoring 11 goals and tallying 28 points, both team highs, Lombard was voted the SoCon Player of the Year as a junior to become the first Wildcat to earn the honor. She ranked second in the league in goals and assists, and led Davidson to its first SoCon Regular- Season title with a 5-1 mark in league play. Then in the SoCon Tournament, Lombard guided the Wildcats to their first tournament title with 2-0 wins over Appalachian State and Georgia Southern. Lombard’s final season saw her carry the ’Cats to yet another SoCon title as she earned tournament MVP honors. In addition, she was named to the all-conference first team after scoring eight goals, and pacing Davidson with nine assists and 25 points. Eleven years after finishing her career, Lombard still remains atop many of the Wildcat career records. She is tied for first in scoring with 39 goals, while her 33 career assists and 111 points place her first in program history. Lombard is also tied for most goals in a game with four, which she accomplished against Louisville on Oct. 17, 1993. Her three assists in a single-game are tied for first and her eight points she recorded against Louisville, are second most in a single-game.

22 DAVIDSON WILDCATS HONORS AND AWARDS

SOCON PLAYERS OF THE YEAR

Claudia Lombard, 1994

Claudia Lombard (1992-95) earned Davidson’s first Player of the Year award in 1994 after lead- ing the ’Cats to their first-ever Southern Conference Tournament title. She earned first-team all- conference honors twice for her performances as a junior and a senior. In 1994, Lombard ranked second in the conference with 11 goals, tallying 28 points during the season. Lombard’s senior season was equally dominant as she led the Wildcats to repeat as tournament champions, earning tourney MVP honors in 1995 with three goals. The forward ranks first in every career scoring category in the Davidson record books with 39 goals, 33 assists and 111 points. Lombard also ranks among the top five in each of the Wildcats’ single-game scoring categories, including first in goals with four in one game.

Allison Noznesky, 1996

Allison Noznesky (1994-97) earned Southern Conference Player of the Year honors for the Wildcats in 1996. During the ’96 campaign, Noznesky and her teammates won both the SoCon regular-sea- son title and league tournament championship. The success of the 1996 team was due in large part to Noznesky’s impressive performance in the net when she led the conference in goals against average at 1.16, allowing just 22 goals in 19 contests. Noznesky also helped lead the ’Cats to three consecutive conference tournament titles dur- ing her career. She ranks in the school’s career record lists in minutes played (5900:19), saves (399), goals against average (1.40) and shutouts (17). Noznesky also ranks first for minutes played (2100:00) and saves (173) in a single season.

Kara Koehrn, 2005

Kara Koehrn (2002-2005) became the third and most recent Wildcat to earn the SoCon Player of the Year honors when she had one of the best individual seasons in school history as a senior in 2005. A four-time all-league pick, Koehrn tied Davidson’s single-season goal record of 19 and matched the career goal record of 39 during her senior campaign. Besides garnering the SoCon’s top honor, the forward was also selected to the Soccer Buzz All-Region Second Team after helping Davidson achieve its highest-ever regional ranking in 2005. The National Soccer Coaches Association of America named Koehrn to its all-region third team, an honor that no other women’s soccer player at Davidson has ever received. Also outstand- ing in the classroom, the biology major earned a spot on the NSCAA/adidas Scholar All-America Second Team. On top of earning numerous postseason hardware, Koehrn led the Wildcats to an undefeated league record (9-0-1) while earning an individual top-10 national ranking for goals per game with 0.90.
