Moon Township, Pa. – The Robert Morris University women's ice hockey team earned a conference-best 21 selections on the College Hockey America (CHA) All-Academic Team that was recently announced by the league.
Sophomore forward Katelyn Scott (Brighton, Mich. / Bell Tire) gained additional accolades as she was one of a conference-record 11 athletes named CHA Student-Athletes of the Year. This honor is given to student-athletes in the conference that post a cumulative GPA of 4.0.
Scott, an engineering major, compiled ten points (four goals, six assists) in 30 games for the Colonials. She registered three multi-point performances on the season, with one of those coming in a Jan. 27 game at RIT. In that game, she assisted on the first Robert Morris goal and buried the game-tying score late in the second period.
Senior assistant captain Jamie Joslin (Richmond Hill, Ontario / Aurora Panthers) was one of eight student-athletes to claim both All-Conference and All-Academic honors. Joslin, a second team All-CHA honoree, compiled a 3.33 GPA as a social science major and led the Colonials with 89 blocked shots.
