As yet another example of the importance of student-athletes, two Tritons were honored for their prowess both on and off the field.
Tennis’ Dan Albrecht and Kristina Anderson of softball were the two athletes recognized.
Albrecht, a junior psychology major, sports a 3.61 GPA and stars for the Tritons as the No. 4 singles player and a member of the No. 3 doubles team. The Tennis Magazine/Intercollegiate Tennis Association Arthur Ashe Award recipient helped to lead his team to the Division II West Regionals during the schools first year at Division II.
Anderson was selected as member of the 2001 Verizon Wireless Academic All-District VIII College team for student athletes. College Sports Information Directors of America chose her, along with nine others, for the team.
Anderson’s GPA is 3.35 and she is a human development major in her junior year.
Anderson batted .264 with 13 RBIs and scored seven runs in helping the Tritons to a 22-11 record.
