Demetriades is making her fourth-straight appearance on the all-league team, earning first-team honors her first three seasons. The starting centerfielder in all of Bucknell's 44 contests this season, she finished the year as the team-leader in triples with five. Her triple total this season brought her career number to 20, giving her the Bucknell record for three-bagger's in a career. She finished second on the squad with a .286 batting average, 36 hits and 20 runs batted in.
A two-year captain, Demetriades has started every one of the 173 games she has played in over the course of her four years at BU. She ends her career with a .324 batting average, having played in and started more games than any other player ever to wear a Bucknell uniform.
Bucknell's other representative on the All-Patriot League team is Porter. BU's ace on the mound, the right-hander made appearances in 24 games, starting 17 of them and completing 12. Porter finished the year with a team-low earned run average of 3.20 ERA through 116.0 innings pitched. In the final weekend of competition this season, Porter broke her own single-season strikeout record, set a year ago, with 104 this year. Earlier in the year, the junior set the Bucknell mark for strikeouts in a game, recording 17 in a 12-inning game against Lafayette.
Despite posting a record of 4-14 on the mound, Porter registered two one-hitters this season and had five games with nine or more strikeouts.
The Orange and Blue finished the 2002 season with a 12-32 overall record and a 5-15 mark in conference play.
