The College of Wooster field hockey team earned the National Field Hockey Coaches Association National Academic Team Award for the 18th time in the last 19 years, two Fighting Scots made the grade for NFHCA Scholars of Distinction honors, and nearly three quarters of this year's team qualified for the NFHCA National Academic Squad. The NFHCA announced its series of academic honors over the last three weeks.

Senior Zoë Semersky continued to headline the individual accolades with a fourth NFHCA National Scholars of Distinction certificate, and junior Maddie Peek is now a three-time NFHCA National Scholars of Distinction honoree.

Joining Peek and Semersky on the NFHCA National Academic Squad were first-years Hannah Baldwin, Cate Barkdoll, and Ava Gooding, junior Delaney Gross, first-year Natalie Katzenmeyer, seniors Clare Leithauser and Jill Murray, juniors Olivia Nengel and Ciara O'Connor, first-year Coco Rodríguez, and senior Lucy Segal. Murray and Segal join Semersky as four-time members of the NFHCA National Academic Squad.

The NFHCA's Scholars of Distinction is awarded to student-athletes who maintain a minimum 3.90 cumulative GPA through the first semester of the 2022-23 school year, while a 3.30 cumulative GPA is needed for National Academic Squad membership. Teams must turn in a collective GPA of at least 3.00 for the fall semester to qualify for the National Academic Team Award.
