Dormer Named Commonwealth Player of the Year

SELINSGROVE, Pa. – Susquehanna University senior Danielle Dormer has been named the Commonwealth Conference Player of the Year in women's tennis as voted upon by the league's seven head coaches and released Tuesday.

Dormer (Harrisburg, PA/Central Dauphin East) was also selected first-team All-Conference for the third consecutive season after compiling a 9-2 record at first singles for the Crusaders (5-6 overall, 2-4 Commonwealth) and 12th-year head coach Bob Jordan.

Her 9-2 record included a 5-1 mark in Commonwealth Conference matches, and boosted her career record to 40-10 making her just the second player in program history to reach 40 career singles victories behind 2002 MAC singles champion Tara McHugh, who won 46 singles matches from 2000 to 2003.

Dormer also compiled a 5-4 record in doubles action playing with senior Sarah Boynton, increasing her career record in doubles to 29-12 to tie the school record for career doubles wins held by Sarah Lampe who went 29-15 from 2001 to 2004.

Ashley Andrews of Juniata was named Commonwealth Rookie of the Year while Cliff Myers of Lebanon Valley was selected as Coach of the Year.

Dormer will be in action at the Middle Atlantic Conference Women's Tennis Tournament to be held Oct. 22-23 at Lehigh University.
