Jillian Leetch, a senior midfielder and team captain for Rockhurst University Women’s Soccer has been named to the CoSIDA Academic All-America Division II First team. Leetch, a LS West grad, was selected for the honor by the College Sports Information Directors of America.

The Rockhurst soccer standout scored 56 points in 64 career games with the Hawks. For Leetch this is just one of many honors earned this year. Earlier this season the former LS West Titan was named the Great Lakes Valley Conference Offensive Player of the Year and first team All-GLVC honors.

Leetch, the fifth academic All-American in Rockhurst women’s soccer history, graduated this spring with a degree in Business Administration.
