UAA's Borowikow named Academic All-District

ANCHORAGE (Nov. 4) – Alaska Anchorage sophomore Marie Borowikow has been named an ESPN Academic All-District first-team honoree in the District 8 College Division for the sport of volleyball.

The 6-3 right-side hitter from Eberswalde, Germany, carries a 4.00 grade-point average as a psychology major. Borowikow has played in every set for the Seawolves this year, helping the team to a 15-7 record and a No. 7 ranking in the NCAA Division II West Region. She currently ranks fourth in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference with 1.02 blocks per set and 10th in the league with a .232 attack percentage.

Nominations and voting for the ESPN Academic All-America program are conducted by members of the College Sports Information Directors of America. The College Division encompasses NCAA Div. II and III and NAIA programs throughout each of the country’s eight districts.

As a first-team selection, Borowikow will now move on to the national balloting for Academic All-America status.
