BRIDGEWATER, Mass. -- Twenty-three Bridgewater State University student-athletes have been named to the 2022-2023 Little East Conference (LEC) Winter All-Academic Team which was announced today.
The 23 BSU student-athletes include 12 members of the women's swimming & diving team and 11 representatives from the men's swimming & diving squad.
To be named to the LEC All-Academic Team, a student-athlete must be at least in sophomore standing in the classroom, have a cumulative GPA of 3.30 or higher through the previous semester, and have been at their current institution for at least one full academic year.
Receiving the honor as members of the women's swimming & diving team are seniors Alex Molinari (Chelmsford, Mass.), Gabriella Rivera (Hanover, Mass.), Danielle Vissering (North Andover, Mass.) and Angelina Vuong (Rockland, Mass.); juniors Camryn Beals (Middleboro, Mass.), Jenna Maxim (Lakeville, Mass.) and Lily Morrison (Marshfield, Mass.); and sophomores Savannah Lavigne (Bridgewater, Mass.), Brianna Matte (Cumberland, R.I.), Brynn Murray (Chelmsford, Mass.), Evelyn Olson (Phillipston, Mass.) and Samantha White (Plymouth, Mass.).
Representing the men’s swimming & diving team are graduate student Shawn Driscoll-Gomez (Medford, Mass.); seniors Chris Anastasiades (Wakefield, Mass.) and Thomas Scalese (Chelmsford, Mass.); juniors Cooper Castellone (South Windsor, Conn.), Luc Durand (Marblehead, Mass.), Brennan Gravanda (Wilbraham, Mass.), Joseph Pervier (Baldwinville, Mass.) and Connor Young (Chelmsford, Mass.); and sophomores Owen Lasbury-Casey (Mansfield, Mass.), Thomas Roch (Chelmsford, Mass.) and Chase Simao (Stonington, Conn.).
The Little East Conference began honoring an all-academic team during the 2007-08 academic year. While the majority of Bridgewater State varsity squads are members of the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC), five BSU teams call the Little East home. Field hockey and women’s tennis compete in the Little East in the fall, men's and women's swimming & diving in the winter, and men’s tennis in the spring.
