Junior midfielder Paige Selenski of the Virginia field hockey team and senior midfielder Sinead Farrelly of the Virginia women's soccer team were both named semifinalists for their respective player of the year awards.
Selesnki, a Honda Award semifinalist for the second consecutive year, led the Cavaliers to their second consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament semifinals. The Shavertown, Pa. native tallied her fourth career hat trick in the loss against North Carolina. Selenski led the Cavaliers with 27 goals en route to being named a first team All-American. She is Virginia's only semifinalist since the award began in 1984.
Meanwhile, Farrelly led her squad to the Sweet Sixteen at Nationals. A Hermann Trophy semifinalist for the second straight season, the senior closed out her final year with a team-high 31 points while starting all 22 games for Virginia. She is the 10th player in ACC history to be a four-time first team all-conference selection.
