United States Coast Guard Academy - Department of Athletics

NEW LONDON, CONN.--(11/7/07)--Coast Guard Academy placed three student athletes on the New England Women’s and Men’s Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Academic All-conference teams released on Wednesday.

Senior Patrick Wright, a Marine and Environmental Science major, was named to the men’s soccer All-Academic team, junior Meaghan Gies, a Marine and Environmental Science major, was named to the women’s soccer team while sophomore Carin Sweeney, a Civil Engineering major, earned a spot on the volleyball Academic All-conference team.

Junior Jen Ferreira led the team with four goals and two assists.

A very youthful Coast Guard Academy women’s soccer team battled each and every time out, but the Bears managed just 11 goals in 16 games as they finished the season 1-15 overall and 0-9 in the New England Women’s and Men’s Athletic Conference (NEWMAC).

Coast Guard dropped six games by two goals or less, three of those by a single goal.

Injuries were a factor for the Bears during the season as sophomore Katie Kurek, who led the team with four goals in 2006, went down with a season ending injury in the third game of the season. Senior Katie Ustler, another one of the Bears top scoring threats, also missed six games due to injury.

Junior Jen Ferreira led the team with four goals, two assists and ten points while classmate Mary Morgan tied for the team lead with two assists and was second on the club with two goals.

NEW LONDON, CONN.--(10/22/07)--Freshman Julie Murray had two goals leading Clark to a 3-0 win over Coast Guard in a New England Women’s and Men’s Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) game, the regular season finale for Clark and final game of the season for Coast Guard. Murray opened the scoring in the 11th minute with senior Liz Adamcik assisting for the Cougars (7-8-2, 4-5).
