CAMBRIDGE, Mass.-- Binghamton volleyball player Dawn Lammert (Sussex, Wis.) was named to the District I Volleyball All-Academic First Team as presented by ESPN The Magazine and selected by College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) on Thursday. Lammert was one of seven members selected to the first team and is now eligible for the Academic All-America Team to be named later this year.
Lammert, a graduate student who carries a 3.94 grade-point average, received her bachelor of arts degree in biology last spring and is pursuing a master's degree at Binghamton, also in biology. A co-captain of the volleyball team and also a member of the track and field team, Lammert led the conference in blocks per game last season and is currently fifth this season during America East play with 0.88 blocks per game.
