Academic Honors

Six Dragon women soccer players were named to All-Ohio squad, more than any other Division II program. Felicia Ruiz, Sheri Camloh, Ashley Davis, Shelly Rogers, Nichole Sorice, and Danielle Eaken all earned recognition. Tiffin University's soccer program really takes their academics seriously. From being on the team I know that Coach Brownell always made sure his student athletes were attending classes and getting their work done. We would be punished if he found out that any one was skipping class. I remember specifically one occasion where the team had to run 12 extra sprints at the end of practice to make up for the amount of classes skipped. Another tactic that Coach Brownell had was that every freshman had to attend four hours of study tables a week no matter what. If the student had a GPA above a 3.0 after the first semester they did not have to attend anymore. I personally think that it is important to remember that student comes before athlete. It just shows the amount of character that girls team hold being able to perform on the field and in the classroom.
