HAVERFORD, Pa. - Haverford senior midfielder Roma Hladky continued to rack up accolades this week as she was announced as a member of the 2022 PhillySIDA Academic All-Area women's lacrosse team. The team is voted on by the sports information office of 30 institutions in the Philadelphia metropolitan area. In order to be eligible for Academic All-Area, an athlete must be in his or her second year at the institution and hold a cumulative grade point average of 3.30 or better.
Hladky continues to add awards to her trophy case as she was previously named an All-American by both the IWLCA and US Lacrosse Magazine last month. Those national honors came on the heels of an incredibly spirited campaign in which she finished her season in the Centennial Conference lead for goals (57), including a CC-best 36 tallies in conference competition.
In addition to that impressive goals mark, she posted multiple goals in all but one game this season, including a season-best seven on two occasions, reaching that benchmark against Washington College (Apr. 16) and Swarthmore (Apr. 23). Hladky was named the Centennial Conference Midfielder of the Year on May 10.
The physics major and Ambler Scholar Athlete was a force on draws as well, with multiple draw controls won in 13 games, and multiple ground balls on five occasions. Hladky is Haverford's first second-team or higher IWLCA All-American since Lindsey Carey earned the designation during the 2000 season, a year in which she was also named the Centennial Conference Player of the Year. Hladky guided No. 22 Haverford to a 12-6 overall record and a berth in the NCAA tournament, the program's first since the 1991 season.
