COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.- Three members of the No. 14 Franklin & Marshall field hockey team were named to the 2025 NFHCA Division III All-Region V Team. Caitlin Hoover and Megan Dadio earned spots on the first team, while Hannah Fitzgerald was named to the second team.

Caitlin Hoover completed one of the best offensive seasons in Franklin & Marshall field hockey history, leading to her second NFHCA All-Region V First-Team appearance. Last month, she was named the Centennial Conference Offensive Player of the Year with a second consecutive season on the conference's first team. Across Division III, she ranked sixth in goals per game (1.28) and seventh in points per game (2.94), leading the Centennial Conference in both categories plus game-winning goals (7). In program history, it was the second-best goals per game and points per game mark behind Becky Willert's 2011 campaign (1.33 GPG, 3.00 PPG). Her 56 points were the third-most in a single season, while her 24 goals ranked fourth. Across 19 games played, she scored at least a point in 16 games, with 14 multi-point games and eight-multi goal games. The season included a run of 15 consecutive games with at least a point. Hoover recorded three hat-tricks in 2025, breaking the program's career hat-trick record in the process with five total. She collected the Centennial Conference Offensive Player of the Week Award four times. It's the fourth time F&M had won the Offensive Player of the Year award after Erin Coverdale (2017, 18) and Lily Mynott (2019) won the award across three consecutive seasons.

Megan Dadio is a first-time NFHCA All-Region V player after earning a first-team selection in 2025. Last month, she earned her second consecutive All-Centennial Conference selection, moving up from honorable mention in 2024 to the first team in 2025. The sophomore midfielder totaled six goals and six assists for 18 points in 2025, ranking 9th in assists per game (0.33), tied for 17th in points per game (0.96), and tied for 21st in goals per game (0.32). She had six games with multiple points and scored the game-winning goal in F&M's 4-0 win over Alvernia (Sept. 17).
 
Hannah Fitzgerald earned a NFHCA All-Region V Second Team spot, becoming an all-region player for the first time. In November, she earned an All-Centennial Conference nod for the first time, placing on the second team. The junior forward/midfield logged nine goals and ten assists for 28 points in 2025. She ranked second in the Centennial Conference in assists per game (0.53), putting her 30th nationally. In other stat categories among Centennial players, she ranked fourth in points per game (1.39), and tied for seventh in goals per game (0.47). Her ten assists tied for the fourth-most in a single season in program history, while the 0.53 assists per game mark is tied for sixth in program history. She had two multi-goal games, seven multi-point games, three game-winning assists and she opened 2025 with a run of eight-consecutive games with at least a point.

The No. 14 Franklin & Marshall field hockey team (15-4, 8-2 Centennial Conference) wrapped up the 2025 season with an appearance in the Centennial Conference Tournament Semifinals for the fourth consecutive season and team's best overall winning percentage (.789) since the 2019 season. Among Centennial Conference teams, F&M ranked first in scoring average (3.28) and scoring margin (2.07), slotting in the top 25 in both categories nationally.
