CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - Boston College Head Coach Alison Foley was named All-New England Coach of the Year by NEWISA, and three Eagle players were also recognized in the region with honors announced earlier this week.
Foley guided BC (16-6-1) to the NCAA Tournament's third round for the first time in the program's history. The Eagles square off against Connecticut Saturday Nov. 20 in Storrs, Conn. Game time is at noon. The Keene State Alumna has led the Eagles to a 37-18-6 overall record in her three years on the Heights, bettering her victory totals each year (nine, 12 and 16).

Both Guarino and Powell were recognized by the BIG EAST conference earlier in November when Guarino landed her first postseason conference recognition (Second Team), and Powell improved upon a Second Team showing in 1998 to deserve First Team Honors in 1999.
Guarino has contributed to the team's scoring in 18 of 23 games. She has a team-leading 19 goals and nine assists to date with nine game-winning goals in addition to 87 career points.
Sweeper Sarah Powell has helped to secured 12 opponent shutouts while also contributing the game-winning goal vs. Brown and two assists over the season.
