Center Valley, Pa. - Lehigh's Gwen Dwyer was tabbed the 2007 Patriot League Women's Tennis Scholar-Athlete of the Year and was one of 30 student-athletes named to the 2007 Patriot League Women's Tennis Academic Honor Roll, announced Executive Director Carolyn Schlie Femovich Tuesday. Dwyer was one of three student-athletes to achieve a 4.0 grade-point average in the spring along with Holy Cross' Natalie Lin and Lehigh's Francesca Murasko-Blank.
Dwyer, an English major, owns a 3.55 cumulative grade-point average and is a four-time Patriot League Women's Tennis Academic Honor Roll selection. She was a member of this year's Lehigh women's tennis squad that posted the highest team grade-point average in program history.
The Mountain Hawk co-captain went 10-9 at No. 1 singles during the spring season of her senior year. She earned First-Team All-Patriot League honors for the third-straight year.
This year marks the first time Lehigh has captured the Patriot League Women's Tennis Scholar-Athlete of the Year award.
To be eligible for the Academic Honor Roll, a student-athlete must earn a 3.20 grade-point average in the spring semester and be awarded a varsity letter in one of the Patriot League's six winter or 10 spring championship sports.
