DANBURY, Conn. - Junior forward Catherine Nathans (New Fairfield, Conn.) and senior keeper Jenna Cappellieri (Stratford, Conn.) have been named to the  2007 NSCAA/adidas Women's NCAA Division III All-America Team. 

Nathans, WestConn's first ever First Team All-American, led the Colonials and the Little East Conference with 17 goals and seven assists for 41 total points.  She was named to the NSCAA All-America Third Team in 2006.

Cappellieri, a Third Team selection, registered 11 shut outs and had an impressive 0.63 goals-against average.  She made 101 saves and had an .871 save percentage.

The Colonials advanced to the NCAA Division III National Championships Final Four in Buena Vista, FL last month before falling to eventual champion Wheaton College (IL), 1-0 in the semifinal match.

Among the 34 players selected in voting by NSCAA member coaches, 12 were honored in on the NSCAA All-American Team in previous season.  Among them was a three-time choice, Dana DiBruno (College of New Jersey/Cherry Hill, N.J.), who earned first-team honors.  Only four schools placed more than one player on the team. Western Connecticut State University, Messiah College, Wheaton (Ill.) College and Wittenberg each had two players chosen. Wheaton, the national champion, was represented by senior defender Bethany Barton (Wheaton, Ill.), who earned her second honor, and sophomore forward Jael Hagerott (St. Charles, Ill.).
