LEWISBURG, Pa. - The Bucknell women's swimming and diving team landed 21 student-athletes on the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll, the league office announced on Tuesday. The Bison paced the eight PL institutions in honor roll representatives, while Lafayette was second with 20.
To be eligible for the Academic Honor Roll, a student-athlete must earn a 3.20 grade-point average in the spring semester and be awarded a varsity letter in one of the Patriot League's six winter or 10 spring championship sports.
Leading the way for the Bison were rising-juniors Eliza Massie (Rochester, N.Y./Pittsford Sutherland) and Abigail Paules (York, Pa./Baltimore Lutheran) and rising-senior Nikki Seaman (Cleveland, Ohio/The Hawken School) as all three were among a group of 10 individuals from around the league that logged perfect 4.0 grade-point averages this spring.
In addition, First-Team All-Patriot League honorees rising-juniors Lauren Russell (Lower Burrell, Pa./Burrell) and Megan Mongan (Malvern, Pa./Villa Maria Academy) and recent graduate Kristen Skroski (North Haven, Conn./Hopkins) earned spots on the list for the Orange and Blue.
