CALDWELL, N.J. - Caldwell College freshman shortstop Danielle Genovese
(Livingston, NJ/Livingston) was named to the 2007 All-Northeast Region first team
by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association, the organization announced.
This is the second all-Region honor for Genovese, who was named to the
all-Region first team by Daktronics last week.
The CACC Rookie of the Year,
Genovese started 50 of Caldwell's 51 games at shortstop this season and
paced the Cougars in batting average (.412) hits (68), runs (40),
doubles (14), triples (5) and stolen bases (11) while leading the conference
in hits. Also a first team all-CACC selection this spring, Genovese earned CACC Player of the Week honors for the week ending
Apr. 1 after hitting .514 with eight runs batted in, 10 runs scored, two
home runs, two triples and two doubles in 10 games. Earlier this season, she
drove in the game-winning runs in extra-inning victories over Minnesota
State-Mankato and Bloomfield.
The Cougars, coached by Dean Johnson, went 34-17 and earned a share
of their fourth consecutive CACC regular-season title this past spring.
The NFCA All-Northeast Region teams were voted on by the head coaches in the Northeast
Region, which consists of the teams from the CACC, the East Coast Conference
and the Northeast-10 Conference.
