Wagner College Seahawks 2017-18 Season in Review

Page 1


With the 2018-19 academic year rapidly approaching, I wanted to take a moment to reflect back on the recently-completed 2017-18 academic year, showcasing a few of the many highlights our student-athletes achieved in the classroom as well as in their respective athletic arenas.

In these pages, you can view the accomplishments of each of Wagner’s 22 intercollegiate programs, including women’s lacrosse and women’s water polo, which each won an NCAA Tournament game after winning their respective conference championship.

I’m proud to report that Wagner now has the distinction of winning six straight NEC Student-Athlete of the Year Awards with men’s tennis player Charlton Boyd taking home this year’s honor.

The Women’s Water Polo team, MAAC Champion for the fifth straight year

student-athlete Spotlight: Greg Senat

Greg's Going Pro After months of preparation, the day finally came Wagner offensive tackle Greg Senat was selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the sixth round of the NFL Draft, becoming the first Seahawk draft pick in 53 years. At 5:16 p.m. on April 28, Senat’s name was announced as the 38th pick of the sixth round and 212th selection overall. Minutes earlier, Senat’s cell phone rang with news of the impending great news. The 6-6, 310-pound Senat’s journey to the NFL was a unique one. A four-year member of the Seahawk men’s basketball team, Senat went on football scholarship prior to the 2016 season and became a fixture on the Seahawk offensive line, starting all 22 games that he played in during his two-year gridiron career. In 2016-17, Senat helped the Wagner hoops team to a 16-14 season as a senior before competing solely in football during the 2017 season as a fifth-year senior.

Overcoming Adversity

Dorian McMenemy is a two-time Olympian and holds multiple national records for the Dominican Republic. Her biggest victory, however, came outside of the pool. Following her freshman season of 2015-16 when she helped the Seahawks to a new school and Northeast Conference (NEC) record in the 200 Medley Relay, as well as a school record in the 400 Free Relay, McMenemy went on to compete in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in August. Shortly after arriving back in the U.S. and resuming her classes and training, McMenemy suffered a stroke during practice. After being unable to compete, and having to spend time in the hospital recovering from the horrific incident, the junior returned to Wagner for the second semester and resumed workouts and practices. Just 10 months after her the stroke, McMenemy returned to competition at the Bay State Games, and won three swimming gold medals. As an inspiration to many, McMenemy is this year’s recipient of the Bay State Games National Athlete of the Year Award for the Female Age 19 & Older Category and was presented with the award at Universal Studios Hard Rock Live in Orlando, Florida. For the Seahawks, McMenemy helped Wagner to its second straight ECAC Championships and a second-place finish at the 2018 NEC Championships.
