"I'm extremely proud of our girls for succeeding in the classroom at such a high level," said head coach Fran Kulas. "When I arrived at Wittenberg in August, the first expectation I had for the team was that they win this awrd. I've been very impressed with our student-athletes desire to win both on the field and in the classroom. Winning this award will always be a top priority for the student-athletes in our program.
The Tigers, under the leadership of first year head coach Fran Kulas, finished the season with a 7-11-1 overall record and a 4-4 finish in the conference.
