NORFOLK, Va. — Sophomore Danielle Goodwin (South Berwick, Maine) of Southern Maine Community College's (SMCC) softball program earned United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) Academic All-American status in the release of the spring awards on Sunday, May 14.
To achieve this recognition, student-athletes must hold a 3.5 grade point average (GPA) or better and have completed at least 24 credits. Goodwin, two-year member of the softball team, got it done in the classroom with a 3.7 GPA, completing 38 credits in the pursuit of her associate degree in Education in which she intends to receive this weekend at graduation.
Goodwin joined five other student-athletes this academic year in achieving the honor. SMCC's 2016-17 USCAA Academic All-Americans were:
Hannah Fields, women's soccer
Harrison Charwat, men's soccer
Bronson Kieltyka, men's soccer
Douglas Cloutier, men's soccer
Vanese Barnes, women's basketball
Danielle Goodwin, softball
Director of Athletics Matt Richards reflected, "I'm extremely proud of the work our student-athletes put in both on the playing surface and in the classroom. To be named an Academic All-American is the ultimate goal and what the student-athlete is here to accomplish—and to that hats off to Danielle and the five other student-athletes who achieved this honor."
