In addition, nine of those players were named to the America East Commissioner’s Honor Roll for maintaining at least a 3.5 for the 2012 spring semester.

Rising senior Jessica Phillips, who last month was named to the America East All-Academic Team and was named a SUNY Chancellor’s Scholar-Athlete, was one of the nine softball student-athletes named to the America East Commissioner’s Honor Roll.
