A number of collegiate athletes with ties to the La Jolla area recently wrapped up their respective spring seasons. On the tennis courts, sophomore Greg Hirshman (La Jolla Country Day School) completed his sophomore season for Stanford University. Hirshman was one of six Stanford netters to receive Pac-10 All-Academic awards. To be eligible for selection to the academic team, a student-athlete must have a minimum 3.0 overall grade-point average and be either a starter or significant contributor. Hirshman carries a 3.99 GPA and is double-majoring in economics and mathematics. On the softball diamond, Samantha Berenter (La Jolla Country Day School) was a member of the Indiana University (10-39, 4-16 Big 10) squad. Berenter appeared in 35 games, starting 29 with all but one coming at third base. She went 2-for-2 with a double and a walk in her season debut against Cal Poly and hit her first career home run against UCLA. Senior Koree Blyleven (The Bishop’s School) and sophomore Chelsea Smith-Carmichael (The Bishop’s School) were members of the Stanford University women’s water polo team. Blyleven was one of 11 Stanford women’s water polo student-athletes honored for their performance in the classroom, earning All-Academic Awards from the Associations of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches.
