Lacrosse Places Two on the All-ACC Academic Team

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- The University of Louisville lacrosse team had two athletes named to the All-ACC Academic Women's Lacrosse Team, as announced Tuesday by Commissioner John Swofford. Seniors Hannah Koloski and Stephanie McNamara represent Louisville on the team. Koloski earned the honor for the third consecutive season.

All eight of the league's women's lacrosse programs are represented on the All-ACC Academic Team, which includes seven student-athletes that earned IWLCA All-America honors in 2017. Fourteen members of the ACC All-Academic Team were named to the All-ACC Team.

Included in the 36-member team are two selections that earned their fourth All-ACC Academic Team honor – Notre Dame's Alex Dalton and Cortney Fortunato, and four that earned recognition for the third straight year (Duke's Kyra Harney and Maura Schwitter, Louisville's Hannah Koloski, and Virginia's Rachel Vander Kolk).

The ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year awards were established in September 2007 to be awarded annually to the top junior or senior student-athlete in their respective sports.

Minimum academic requirements for selection to the All-ACC Academic Team are a 3.0 grade point average for the previous semester and a 3.0 cumulative average during one's academic career. Athletic achievements during the most recent season are also considered in selecting the All-ACC Academic Team.

The ACC Honor Roll, which recognizes all conference student-athletes with a grade point average of 3.0 for the current academic year, will be released in July.
