Alyssa Dunn ’11, who hails from Standish and attended Bonny Eagle High School, was a tremendous two-sport athlete who was a four-year starter for the Saint Joseph’s field hockey and softball teams.
As a starting first baseman for the Monks’ softball team, Dunn was a .382 career hitter and remains among the program’s all-time leaders in total bases (278, 3rd), hits (191, 5th), home runs (13, 5th), doubles (44, 6th), RBI (123, 6th), and extra-base hits (59, 6th).
As a senior Dunn hit .384 (58-151) with 28 runs, 11 doubles, six home runs and 34 RBI while leading the Monks to the program’s first Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) Championship and subsequent NCAA Tournament appearance. In four field hockey seasons, Dunn played in 78 games with eight goals, 23 assists and five defensive saves and is regarded as one of the best defenders in program history.
Dunn helped lead her teams to a 178-74 (.706) combined record and garnered five all-conference honors in the two sports combined.
An outstanding student, Dunn – a Biology/Pre-Med major – was the first athlete in the College’s history to claim Academic All-America honors and earned over 15 individual academic accolades during her career and was named as the 2011 GNAC Woman of the Year.
