Katie Wells - Field Hockey - Siena - Niskayuna, NY

Wells joined the Saints' prestigious 4.0 Club after posting a perfect GPA in the Spring while maintaining a full course load in Siena's ultra-challenging biology department. She has spent much of her summer performing undergraduate research and observation, designing and implementing studies aimed at discovering the role certain genes play in addiction. On the field, the senior captain has been a huge asset to the Saints' defense and midfield lines. She started 13 of 16 games last season registering an assist and a defensive save. The two-time conference All-Academic and Honor Roll selection will be asked to play a leadership role for this year's squad.
