MANAHAWKIN, NJ — The NFHCA is honored to provide a select group of senior student-athletes with the opportunity to be recognized and celebrated for their outstanding performances. Congratulations to the 38 student-athletes from 30 different Division I institutions who have earned a spot on the 2023 NFHCA Senior Team. Paying tribute to their entire collegiate careers, the NFHCA is proud to acknowledge and celebrate these seniors for their accomplishments and impact on and off the field.

B1G regular-season and conference-champions, Northwestern University, led the Senior Team with three selections, followed by Liberty University, Penn State University, Syracuse University, University of Michigan, Villanova University and Wake Forest University, who each landed two student-athletes on the team, respectively.

The NFHCA is deeply grateful to Coach and donor Karren Mann for her generous contribution to the Senior Team awards experience now and over the next 10 years.  Each select 2023 student-athlete will receive a personalized engraved award commemorating this special recognition and be celebrated through a highlight video which can be viewed here.  In addition to the video announcement, custom apparel featuring the names of all 2023 Senior Team members was created and is available for purchase at the NFHCA online store.
