BROCKPORT, N.Y. - Three Temple field hockey players have earned NFCHA Division I Scholar of Distinction honors, with Dani Batze, Maddie Molchany, and Megan Phillips all being tabbed. This is the second-straight year the Owls have put three players on the list.

This year, more than 250 student-athletes have been recognized as NFHCA Division I Scholars of Distinction. The Scholars of Distinction program recognizes student-athletes who have achieved a cumulative grade-point average of 3.9 or higher through the first semester of the 2020-21 academic year.
