MOON TOWNSHIP, PA. – Sophomore Margot Scharfe, the team's assists leader this season, led four Orange student-athletes who earned College Hockey America postseason honors at the annual conference banquet on Thursday night. Scharfe was named to the CHA Second Team while also earning the Individual Sportsmanship Award and Co-Best Defensive Forward honor.
Joining Scharfe on the Second Team is defenseman Caitlin Roach, while freshmen Nicole Ferrara and Kaillie Goodnough were named to the All-Rookie Team.
Scharfe (Toronto, Ontario) is tied for the team-lead this season with 26 points (13 goals, 13 assists). She is tied for 81st in the nation in points per game (0.76), tied for 55th in goals per game (0.41) while her 13 goals are seventh in the CHA and her 13 assists are 11th. Scharfe also has seven points in her last five games (three goals, four assists), and was named the league Player of the Week on Monday after a three-point weekend at Niagara on Feb. 24-25.
