Emory's Grace Lam Named to the NSCAA/ Adidas Women's Soccer All-America Team

Emory University's Grace Lam became the fourth two-time all-American in the history of the Women's Soccer Program, as the senior was named to the NSCAA/ Adidas NCAA Division III All-America Third Team for the second consecutive year.

Lam joins former Eagles Diana Spock (1993, 1995), Annie Schenck (2000, 2001), and Andrea Pawliczek (2000, 2001) as Emory's two-time all-America honorees.  She is one of 12 honorees on this year's  all-America team to have been honored in a previous year.

Lam anchored an Emory University defense that allowed a 0.553 goals-against average during the season, the 23rd-lowest total in Division III in 2008.  She started all 21 of Emory's games during the season, scoring four goals during the season for eight points.

Earlier in the season, Lam was named to the all-University Athletic Association (UAA) first team for the second-consecutive year, and the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District Second Team for her performances both in the classroom and on the pitch.

The Eagles finished the 2008 season with a 16-4-1, including a UAA Championship and a trip to the round of 32 in the NCAA Division III Tournament.
