UTICA, NY – Senior All-American's
Hannah Mackey (Locke, NY/Moravia Central) and
Alaina Stojkovski (Liverpool, NY/Cicero-North Syracuse) of the Utica College field hockey team were named 2014 ECAC Division III Mid-Atlantic Field Hockey All-Stars on Thursday. Mackey was a first team pick as a forward, while Stojkovski was a second team selection as a midfielder.
Earlier this offseason Mackey became the first payer in program history to be named an All-American in consecutive seasons. Mackey wrapped up her career as Utica's all-time leader in goals (84), points (199), and game-winning goals (23). This past season she set new conference single-season records for goals (36) and points (80) on her way to being named both the Empire 8 Conference and the North Atlantic Region Player of the Year. Her goal total this season ranks ninth in NCAA Division III history.
Stojkovski made her first appearance on an NFHCA All-American team this Fall after she was named first team All-Region for the second straight year. She wrapped up her best season yet as she had a career-high 12 goals, including two game-winners, and 30 points while starting all 21 games for the Pioneers. She is second all-time at UC with 30 career assists. Stojkovski ranks fifth in program history with 96 career points. She is a four-time All-Conference selection, three-time All-Region member and was named the 2012 Empire 8 Tournament MVP.
Utica finished the season with an 18-3 record and secured its third straight Empire 8 Conference title. The Pioneers became just the second team in E8 history to win back-to-back-to-back Championships. UC also earned a berth in the NCAA Tournament and hosted a first round game for the third year in a row.
