Field Hockey Announces Team Awards for 2025 Season

PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania field hockey team has announced their team awards for the 2024-25 season.
 
The senior class was awarded with the Sage and Cloud Coach's Award. The Coach's Award recognizes players who embody the highest standards of Penn field hockey—those who not only uphold the program's expectations, but also elevate them through leadership, consistency, and daily commitment. Anne Sage, the inaugural Head Coach of the Penn field hockey program in 1979, was succeeded by her longtime assistant, Val Cloud. The seniors who received the award include Livia Loozen, for her exceptional work rate, intensity, toughness, and daily passion. Amy Lanouette, for her dependability in the high-pressure back line and her poise both on and off the field. Julia Ryan, for her talent as a playmaker and her ability to deliver in critical moments. And Philine Klas, for serving as a commanding anchor and a significant penalty corner threat.
 
Junior Ruby de Frees won the Margaretha "Gretta" Ehret Dream Crazy Award. Named in honor of Penn Field Hockey alumna Gretta Ehret, this award recognizes a player who demonstrates fearless and selfless commitment to the team, dedication to excellence in performance, and a passion for uplifting others through sport. Ruby was recognized for her authenticity and leadership in consistently inspiring and supporting her teammates.
 
Freshman Jazmin Borensztein was awarded the Gail Lipstein Award. This award is presented to the program's most outstanding newcomer, recognizing an athlete whose impact is immediate and whose contributions transcend class year. Jazmin was honored for her commitment to the team and for making a meaningful and immediate impact on the program.
 
Junior Honor Roberts won the Diane Angstadt Award. The Diane Angstadt Award recognizes the team's most inspirational player—an individual who leads by example through unwavering work ethic, determination, and a commitment to competing fully in every moment. Honor was recognized for playing every minute with urgency and purpose, pursuing each ball relentlessly, and demonstrating accountability for performance and results.
 
Senior Julia Ryan received the Anne Townsend Award. The Anne Townsend Award is presented to the team's Most Outstanding Player. Anne Townsend, captain of the United States Field Hockey Team from 1924 to 1938, was also instrumental in the establishment of the Women's Athletic Association at Penn. Julia was honored for her offensive excellence and leadership in helping the team achieve the highest RPI finish in program history (No. 15).
 
Sophomore Maxi Aranowitz was named Most Improved Player. The Most Improved Player Award recognizes the athlete who has demonstrated the greatest growth and development over the course of the past year. Maxi was recognized for her insatiable curiosity, coachability, and dedicated work behind the scenes.
