Williamsburg - Sophomore Klaudyna Kasztelaniec received ESPN The Magazine Second-Team Academic All-District III honors from the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Kasztelaniec holds a near perfect grade point average at William and Mary while majoring in economics.

The Krakow, Poland native was a Second-Team All-CAA performer in doubles and a third-team honoree in singles for the Tribe this season. She amassed a singles ledger of 25-9, winning her final six matches of the season. Kasztelaniec clinched both the Tribe’s victories in the NCAA Regional with wins at the No. 4 slot. She also had a doubles mark of 20-8. Earlier this season, Kasztelaniec garnered the first national ranking of her career at No. 59 following a fall season in which she led the Tribe in victories with 13.

Kasztelaniec and the Tribe advanced to the NCAA Round of 16 and captured the program’s 19th CAA Championship in 2007. W&M finished the year at 22-3 with a national ranking of No. 15. The College won 11 straight matches to open the season, marking the best start in school history. Included in those 11 wins was a 4-3 win over then-No. 1 and eventual national champion Georgia Tech in Champaign, Ill., on Feb. 10.
