Bridgewater Field Hockey Stars Score Collegiate Athletic Honors

Two Bridgewater students playing collegiate field hockey have received honors for their contributions to their respective team's success.

Carlee Dragon, a senior at Long Island University, was named to Player of the Year for the Northeast 10 Conference, while Bucknell University senior Erica Perrine was named to the Academic All-Patriot League team.

Dragon's honor follows the LIU Post Pioneer's perfect 18-0 season. 

A unanimous decision as a member of the first-team and a five-time NE-10 Player of the Week, Dragon is tops in the Northeast-10 and the nation with 75 points on 30 goals (six game-winners) and a conference-high 15 assists for the undefeated Pioneers, who won the Northeast-10 regular-season title with a flawless 10-0 record.

Savin received Northeast-10 Coach of the Year honors, as voted upon by her peers, as she has led the Pioneers to the top seed in the Northeast-10 Championship in their first year as an associate member with the conference in the sport of field hockey. Her squad is currently ranked third in the nation with a perfect 18-0 record, good for the most wins in program history.

Perrine is an accounting major with a 3.84 cumulative GPA, and earned six selections to Bucknell’s Dean’s List and is also the recipient of the Delta Mu Delta Board Award and the Dean’s Scholarship. The captain of this year’s squad and a member of Bucknell’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, she is a three-time Patriot League Academic Honor Roll selection, as well as a three-time NFHCA National Division I Academic Squad member.

Perrine, who took over the Bison goaltending duties during her sophomore year, is a two-time All-Patriot League honoree and a 2013 All-Patriot League Preseason team selection. She started all 17 games in goal this season, compiling an 8-9 record through the regular season. Her 1.27 GAA and .767 save percentage rank her third in Patriot League play this season, while her 23 saves rank her fourth. Perrine has become one of the strongest Bison goaltenders in program history during her time between the pipes, and she currently ranks fifth with 25 career wins and eighth with 284 career saves.
