HOCHSTUHL NAMED SECOND-TEAM DIVISION III PRE-SEASON ALL-AMERICAN
WILKES-BARRE
-- King's College women's basketball standout Andrea Hochstuhl
(Landenberg, Pa./St. Mark's, De.) has been selected as a second-team
pre-season Division III All-American by D3Hoops.com.
A six-foot center, Hochstuhl comes off an outstanding junior year in
which she was named a first-team Mid-Atlantic All-Regional selection by
D3Hoops.com, while also garnering first-team All-Freedom Conference
honors.
A year ago, Hochstuhl led King's to a 21-9 record as the Lady Monarchs
fell one win shy of reaching the NCAA Division III National Tournament
with a second-place finish in the Freedom Conference Tournament. King's
would go on to place second in the Eastern College Athletic Conference
Southern Region Championships.
On the year, Hochstuhl averaged 14.3 points, 9.8 rebounds and 63 blocked
shots while registering 16 double-doubles (points-rebounds) on the year.
Hochstuhl scored in double-figures in 24 of King's 30 games during the
season.
During the 2006-07 campaign, she posted career highs of 27 against
Delaware Valley, 17 rebounds twice, and blocked seven shots on two
occasions. She was also a three-time Freedom Conference "Player of the
Week" choice during the season. A three-year letter-winner and two-year
starter at King's, Hochstuhl has totaled 756 points, 566 rebounds, and
95 blocked shots.
Hochstuhl and her King's teammates open the 2007-08 season Friday at
1:30 p.m. at the annual Marymount Tip-Off Classic.
