FREDONIA, N.Y. -- Three Fredonia State student-athletes were named to weekly award lists Monday by the State University of New York Athletic Conference.
They are junior lacrosse player
Casey Chiesa (Baldwinsville), senior track and field athlete
Broncho Rollins (Ithaca), and junior softball player
Anne Wasik (Fredonia).
Chiesa earned her second straight SUNYAC Goalie of the Week honors after leading the Blue Devils to a 2-0 week with 24 combined saves and a .533 save percentage. Last Tuesday, Chisea stopped 12 shots in the 15-11 win over Buffalo State. She also made 12 saves on Saturday, nine in the second half, and collected three groundballs in the 19-10 win over Potsdam. The Blue Devils remain unbeaten in the SUNYAC and set a school record for consecutive wins with eight.
Rollins, a senior pole vaulter, was named SUNYAC Men's Field Athlete of the Week for the first time this year. He won his event Sunday at the Bucknell Bison Outdoor Classic. He defeated 25 other vaulters from the three NCAA divisions by clearing 4.95 meters, which converts to a school-record 16' 2”. He was also the previous school record-holder in the event.
Wasik earned her second Softball Player of the Week award this spring. She hit .632 (12-of-19) during the Blue Devils' 4-1 week, including three wins in league play. She had four RBIs and four extra-base hits for an .842 slugging percentage. Wasik had a single in the fifth inning of a 9-2 win over Medaille on Tuesday. In the doubleheader at Oneonta she combined 5-for-7 with two doubles and three runs scored. She finished the New Paltz twinbill with six hits.
