GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com) – Boston College senior attacker Charlotte North was named the Atlantic Coast Conference’s 2021 Women’s Lacrosse Scholar-Athlete of the Year and headlines the 2021 All-ACC Academic Team announced Tuesday by the league office.
North is the third straight ACC Women’s Lacrosse Scholar-Athlete of the Year from Boston College. Sam Apuzzo earned the distinction in 2018 and 2019.
A native of Dallas, Texas, North was named to the All-ACC Academic Team for the third time. She was the women’s recipient of the 2021 Tewaaraton Award, which is given annually to the top lacrosse player in the nation. North is the ninth women’s Tewaaraton recipient from an ACC program and joins Apuzzo (2018) as Boston College’s Tewaaraton honorees.
The sociology major led Boston College to its first-ever National Championship this season, recording an NCAA Division I-record 102 goals. She also broke the Division I record for goals in an NCAA Tournament with 31. North was named First-Team All-ACC as well as the Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association's Player of the Year and Attacker of the Year while earning spots on the IWLCA and Inside Lacrosse All-America first teams. She currently owns 266 career goals, which is third in ACC history.
All eight of the league’s women’s lacrosse programs are represented on the All-ACC Academic Team, which includes 18 student-athletes that earned IWLCA All-America honors this season. Sixteen members of the All-ACC Academic Team were also named to the All-ACC First Team. Syracuse led all schools with 11 student-athletes on the team, while Notre Dame had 10 honorees. Duke and North Carolina each had eight honorees.
In addition to North, six other student-athletes earned the award for the third time in their careers: Duke’s Eva Greco, Louisville’s Caroline Blalock, North Carolina’s Katie Hoeg and Emma Trenchard, Notre Dame’s Maddie Howe and Virginia Tech’s Paige Petty.
The ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year awards were established in September 2007 to be awarded annually to the top junior or senior student-athlete in their respective sports.
Minimum academic requirements for selection to the All-ACC Academic Team are a 3.0 grade point average for the previous semester and a 3.0 cumulative average during one’s academic career for undergraduate students. Athletic achievements during the most recent season are also considered in selecting the All-ACC Academic Team.
The ACC Honor Roll, which recognizes all conference student-athletes with a grade point average of 3.0 for the current academic year, will be released in July.
