BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Four members of the Lehigh softball team have been named to the College Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team, announced Tuesday. The Mountain Hawks are represented by senior Julia Mrochko, junior Sydney Parlett and sophomores Holly Lovett and Peyton Sward.
To be eligible for Academic All-District honors, student-athletes must have a 3.50 cumulative grade point average and meet certain competitive benchmarks for games played or games started. Student-athletes who meet this criteria and have significant on-field accomplishments will move on to the Academic All-America ballot. First-year student-athletes are not eligible for Academic All-District or Academic All-America honors.
From Lehigh’s four honorees, Mrochko and Sward will move on to the Academic All-America ballot, with those honors expected to be announced in mid-June. Mrochko and Sward were both All-Patriot League honorees on the field, with Mrochko earning second team honors and Sward being selected to the first team. The middle infield duo both garnered Academic All-Patriot League honors earlier this month.
Mrochko graduated May 18 with a 3.74 GPA in finance. She hit .325 in 2025 with 17 doubles, three home runs and 32 RBIs.
Lehigh’s primary catcher in 2025, Parlett holds a 3.61 GPA majoring in industrial and systems engineering. Parlett had 10 extra base hits and drove I 17 runs in 47 games this past season.
An economics major with a 3.76 GPA, Lovett appeared in all 52 games, primarily at third base, and had 30 hits, including five doubles, and 17 runs batted in.
Sward’s 3.78 GPA ranks first among Lehigh’s upperclass student-athletes. She hit .318 with 49 hits and 31 runs scored in 52 games last season.
Lehigh finished the 2025 season at 28-24.
