Boston University

One of the greatest field hockey players in Boston University history, Pam Spuehler ('08) entered the Hall of Fame in her first year of eligibility. Spuehler was a three-time All-American, capped by a first-team selection as a senior in 2007 when she was named one of four finalists for the Honda Award, given annually to the nation's top collegiate field hockey player.

As a senior, the midfielder scored a team-best 37 points on 11 goals and 15 assists to help BU reach the NCAA quarterfinals for the first time since 1991. She helped the Terriers claim three straight conference titles and was twice named the Most Outstanding Player of the America East Championship (2006, 2007). The first four-time America East All-Conference honoree in program history, Spuehler was the recipient of the 2008 Mildred Barnes Award, signifying the top female athlete at BU.

Spuehler, a native of Sudbury, Mass., went on to serve as an assistant coach for the Terriers for two seasons before deciding to focus on her playing career, which included stints with top-level hockey leagues in Australia and Germany before earning a spot on the 2011 U.S. National Team.
