After scoring her first career goal on Senior Day in the team’s dominant victory over Chicago State, Alyssa Campagna (Las Vegas, Nev.) has been named Featured Student-Athlete for the week of Oct.20-26, 2014 on GoSeattleU.com.

“I am super happy Alyssa decided to come back for her fifth year,” said head coach Julie Woodward. “She continues to raise the standards and expectations for this program in terms of her leadership, work ethic, and academic success. She is a pretty special person and I feel very blessed that she is a part of our program. I’m very grateful for her contributions to making us a better team.”

Campagna earned her ninth career start on Senior Day, Oct. 26, recording both her first career goal in the 56th minute, and providing an assist on Sunshine Soriano’s (Henderson, Nev.) goal in the 60th minute in the Redhawks’ 11-0 victory.

Also excelling academically, Campagna currently holds a 3.348 cumulative GPA as a double major in accounting and finance.
