Springfield, Ohio – A trio of Wittenberg University’s women’s lacrosse student-athletes have earned recognition from the Intercollegiate Women’s Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) as members of the 2014 Division III Academic Honor Roll. 

Senior midfielder Francine Murzynski (Mentor, Ohio/Lake Catholic), senior defender Mallory Skrobot (Dublin, Ohio/Watterson) and junior midfielder Megan Loofbourrow (Prospect, Ky./Ballard) all were recognized for their academic and athletic achievements during the 2013-14 school year. IWLCA Academic Honor Roll awards are given annually to student-athletes who display excellence in the classroom by maintaining at least a 3.5 cumulative team grade-point average while attaining either a junior or senior academic standing. 

Previously, Wittenberg was one of 125 NCAA Division III programs to earn 2014 Academic Honor Squad recognition from the IWLCA. 

Not only did the Tigers excel in their classes in 2014, but they enjoyed one of the finest seasons in program history as well. Wittenberg posted a sparkling overall record of 14-3, which included a third consecutive undefeated record in the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC). After winning the NCAC regular season title, the Tigers dropped a heartbreaking 14-12 decision in the championship game of the league tournament. 

Wittenberg heads into the 2015 season with 15 letterwinners expected to return to the roster, led by first-team All-NCAC attacker Logan Warye (Maineville, Ohio/Kings), who set a school record with 67 goals in her junior season. In addition, second-team all-league choice Olivia Lash (Cleveland Heights, Ohio/Cleveland Heights) and honorable mention All-NCAC selection Carrie Kubasta (Medina, Ohio/Medina) will be back in the line-up after outstanding inaugural campaigns in the Red & White.
