Patriot League Announces Women’s Rowing Academic Honor Roll 222 student-athletes receive Honor Roll recognition

Center Valley, Pa. – Two hundred and twenty-two student-athletes have been named to this year’s Patriot League Women’s Rowing Academic Honor Roll, led by 44 from Boston University.

Navy junior Kathleen Heinbach, the 2015 Patriot League Women’s Rowing Scholar-Athlete, achieved a 4.0 grade point average along with six other members of the Mids championship squad – Julia Arthur, Virginia Brodie, Aria Dang, Rebecca Greenberg, Brianna Kaufmann and Miranda Kosmides.

In all 23 student athletes registered a 4.0 GPA this spring, including MIT’s Christina Adcock, Katherine Adler, Pristanavae Manning, Cliodhna McCarthy, Valerie Peng and Larkin Sayre; Georgetown’s Sabrina Gosman, Jocelyn Hlawaty, Christina Johnson and Katie McGowan; Bucknell’s Bethany Bechtel, Margo Boyd and Leah Murphy; Boston University’s Emma Ransom, Holy Cross’ Kate Diggins and Lehigh’s Leah Paulson. All 12 members of the Academic All-Patriot League team appear on the 2015 honor roll.

In addition to Boston University, Bucknell landed 39 student-athletes on the honor roll, followed by Georgetown (31), Navy (25), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (24) and Holy Cross (20).

To be eligible for the spring Academic Honor Roll, a student-athlete must earn a 3.20 grade-point average in the spring semester and participate in one of the Patriot League’s winter or spring championship sports.

“Today’s Scholar-Athletes, Tomorrow’s Leaders” – The Patriot League continually demonstrates that student-athletes can excel at both academics and athletics without sacrificing its high standards. The Patriot League’s athletic success is achieved while its member institutions remain committed to its founding principle of admitting and graduating student-athletes that are academically representative of their class. Participation in athletics at Patriot League institutions is viewed as an important component of a well-rounded education.
