Women’s Hockey Places 14 on NEHC All-Academic Team

GORHAM, Maine – Fourteen members of the University of Southern Maine Huskies women's ice hockey team have been named to the 2024-2025 New England Hockey Conference (NEHC) All-Academic Team. To be eligible for All-Academic recognition, a student must carry a minimum of a 3.0 cumulative GPA and have completed one full year at their current institution by the beginning of the hockey season. Student-athletes that were freshmen or first-year transfers during the 2024-25 season were not eligible.
 
Fifth-year senior Haley McKim (Moncton, New Brunswick/Mount Academy), a Second Team All-NEHC selection last season, headlines the list with the fourth All-Academic nod for her career. The senior class also features a trio of three-time All-Academic honorees in Ellie Fredenburg (Cambridge, Mass./ Cambridge Rindge and Latin), Madelyn McLeish (Dedham, Mass.) and Amelie St-Amant (Cornwall, Ontario).
 
Seniors Jess MacLean (Red Point, Nova Scotia/Rankin School of the Narrows) and Isabella Colarusso-Sprang (Northfield, Ohio/Gilmour Academy) each also earned a spot on the All-Academic team for the second time in their careers. Additional two-time honorees for the Huskies include juniors Sydnee Chaisson (Stratford, Prince Edward Island/Mount Academy), Olivia Stewart (Fredericton, New Brunswick/Mount Academy) and Caroline Thompson (Crapaud, Prince Edward Island/Mount Academy).
 
Three sophomores, Ellie Eigner (Bowling Green, Ohio/ South Lyon East), Shannon Murphy (Pembroke, Mass./Brewster Academy) and Morgan Rochefort (Bangor, Maine/ Brooks School), also earned the award. They were joined by senior Madison Chagnon (St. Albans, Vt./Rice Memorial) and junior Saige MacLeod (Dryden, Ontario) as first-time selections.
 
The Huskies went 11-13-2 during the 2024-25 season with an 8-8-1 record in their final season of NEHC play. The team will compete in the Little East Conference starting next fall.
