COLCHESTER, Vt. – Six Saint Michael's College student-athletes were named to the Northeast-10 Conference weekly honor roll on Monday, including four men's soccer players.

Seniors Jerrod Hall (Bennington, Vt./Mount Anthony Union) and Patrick Melvin (Belmont, Vt./Black River), and sophomores Yoshikazu Ishii (Tokyo, Japan) and Aaron Vine (Saratoga, N.Y./Saratoga Springs) were honored following Wednesday's season-ending 4-0 victory versus the College of Saint Rose. Hall, Ishii and Vine all tallied a goal and an assist as the Purple Knights notched their seventh win of the season, matching the most for the program since 1988. Melvin, meanwhile, stopped five shots to earn his sixth shutout of the season in the final game of his career.

In field hockey, senior Ashley Brown (New Boston, N.H./Goffstown Area) was recognized. She scored her third goal of the season in her final collegiate contest, a 4-2 loss at Southern Connecticut State University in the NE-10 Quarterfinals on Wednesday.

In volleyball, senior Katie Ouellette (Hampton, N.H./Winnacunnet) was chosen. She averaged 4.5 kills and 3.9 digs per game in a 1-1 week, including a career-high and Saint Michael's season-best 29 kills in Tuesday's 3-2 win versus Plattsburgh State University.
