The North Eastern Athletic Conference announced its selections for its women's tennis all-conference awards on Thursday morning and four Lancaster Bible College players earned conference honors, including sophomore Cara DiCiano who was named NEAC Rookie of the Year.
 
DiCiano was also named to the NEAC All-Conference Second Team at No. 2 singles and she and doubles partner Deana Graber were named to the NEAC All-Conference First Team at the No. 1 doubles position. Joining DiCiano on the NEAC All-Conference Second Team are Kenedi Berkhimer at No. 4 singles and Chloe Campbell at No. 6 singles.
 
Graber and DiCiano are currently 7-2 in doubles action this season, and the pair posted a 3-1 mark in NEAC play as well.
 
DiCiano is 8-1 in singles play this season, and posted a 3-1 mark in NEAC play. DiCiano has blanked her opponent (6-0) in a set eight times this season, including once on Tuesday in her NEAC Semifinal victory against Penn College.
 
Berkhimer is 5-4 in singles play this season, including two wins at the No. 3 singles position when teammate Haylee Fishel was injured.
 
Like Berkhimer, Campbell posted two wins at a higher position than she normally plays, as she won twice at No. 5 singles while Fishel was injured.  Campbell is 6-3 overall this season in singles play, and has now earned NEAC All-Conference honors in both field hockey (2019) and tennis (2021).
 
The Chargers face Penn St. Harrisburg in the NEAC Final on Saturday at 1 p.m. in Middletown, Pa.
