CENTER VALLEY, Pa.—Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year Rachel Bloznalis earned another conference accolade, being named to the 11-player Academic All-Patriot League Team, the conference announced on Wednesday afternoon.
This marks the fourth straight year that BU has been represented on the Academic All-Patriot League Team and is the first selection for Bloznalis, a senior captain. Student-Athletes are voted onto the team by a representative from each of the member schools and must have at least a 3.20 cumulative GPA and play in at least 50 percent of this year's contests.
Bloznalis came into the season as the only returning All-Patriot League First Team defender in the conference and put her talent on display as she helped the Terriers shut out five conference opponents this season and limited Patriot League schools to just 3.33 shots on goal per game.
The Upton, Mass. native currently holds a 3.37 GPA as a health science major in Sargent College and is a participant in the Bloom Family Leadership Academy. She has spent countless hours volunteering in not only the Boston community, but the global community as well, signing on with Coaches Across Continents and spending four weeks in Cameroon last summer as a volunteer coach, using soccer as a vehicle for social change.
