top five all-time in several statistical categories, including
points in a season (460) and career steals (149).

1999-2003 and ranks as the program's all-time leading scorer with
1,612 points. She is one of only six players in program-history to
score 1,000 points. As a junior in 2001-02, Hill helped lead the
Blazers to a 15-win season and North Atlantic Conference (NAC)
championship.
St. Germain was a four-year member of the field hockey program, a three-year player on the softball team and a two-year member of the basketball team.
In field hockey, St. Germain ranks second all-time in both goals
(36) and points (88). In both her sophomore and senior seasons
(1989 and 1991), she helped lead the Blazers to program-record
15-win seasons, and in 1989, was also a member of the school's
first-ever Massachusetts Association of Intercollegiate Athletics
