PHILADELPHIA- Sophomore lacrosse player Allison Frengs has been the named Owlsports.com Athlete of the Month for the month of May. Earlier this month, Frengs garnered IWLCA/US Lacrosse Regional All-American status, marking the first time that an Owl has earned Regional All-American recognition since the 2000 season.
Frengs was the most dominant player on the Temple team this past season and was named the 2005 Atlantic 10 Offensive Player of the Year. She led the team in scoring, earning 53 points off of 46 goals and seven assists, and was second in caused turnovers (16). She also finished among the team leaders in groundballs (30) and draw controls (21). Frengs has had eight games where she has scored at least four goals, with her season high of six goals coming in a 14-10 victory over Saint Joseph's. Her game-winning goal in overtime against George Washington gave the Owls their seventh straight regular season title and the #1 seed in the A-10 Tournament. Her game-winners against Massachusetts and Colgate were also crucial to the squad's success this season. In just two years on the team, Frengs has scored 76 goals and is on track to rank among the program's scoring leaders.
Temple, who captured its seventh straight A-10 regular season title, finished the season with a 10-7 overall record and a 6-1 mark in A-10 play.
