Complete United Soccer Coaches Release
 
BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Continuing its stellar success in the classroom, the Lehigh women's soccer team has garnered a United Soccer Coaches Team Academic Award for the 15th time in the last 16 years. The award is for the 2017-18 academic year as the Mountain Hawks posted a 3.56 team GPA, tops among all Lehigh Athletics squads.
 
College Team Academic Award recipients are those with a composite grade point of average of 3.0 or better on a 4.0 scale for all players on the roster. In total, 484 women's squads across Division I, II, and III received the award.
 
The award continues a long list of academic honors for the Mountain Hawks. Last season, Amanda Stratton was named a CoSIDA Academic All-District honoree while Sam Miller was named to the Academic All-Patriot League team. Stratton also received her team's third straight Scholar-Athlete of the Year award at the annual end-of-year banquet. Following the season, a school-record 23 Mountain Hawks were named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll. Twelve of the Mountain Hawks' 23 honorees posted a GPA of 3.70 or higher, led by Stratton's 3.91.
