Thursday, the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) released its 2021-22 Academic All-District teams for soccer, with Kent State's Karly Hellstrom being named to the team.
Hellstrom, the redshirt senior forward from Sudbury, Ontario, received this prestigious award after posting a 3.92 GPA in her classes at KSU. An exercise science major, Hellstrom has paired that academic excellence with stellar play on the field, finishing first in the Mid-American Conference this season in assists with 11 and third in points with 25. She was an instrumental part of a Golden Flashes squad that surpassed expectations and made it all the way to the MAC Championship game.
