2012 MASCAC Women's Basketball All Conference Team
North Adams, MA- A pair of MCLA seniors, Jen Wehner and Alie Dobrovolc, were named to the All MASCAC teams following a vote of the league's coaches. Wehner was a first team selection, while Dobrovolc garnered second team honors.
Wehner was named to the first team for the third consecutive season and fourth All MASCAC selection overall. The senior from Cooperstown was also the MASCAC player of the year last season. She continued her dominance in the paint wreaking havoc for conference opponents her entire career. As a senior, she averaged a double double of 16.4 points and 11.5 rebounds. She finished with 15 double doubles on the season. Her best performance of the season was a 29 point, 14 rebound effort in a win over Framingham. She also recorded a 20-20 game, posting 20 points and 21 rebounds in a road loss to Framingham. Aside from scoring and rebounding, Wehner led the conference in field goal percentage (54.6%) and blocks (71).
Wehner was joined on the first team alongside the 2012 player of the year, Fitchburg State's Amy Fahey. Joining those two were Bridgewater's Shelly DePina and Michaela Cosby, and Worcester's Kaleigh Charette.
If Wehner controlled the paint, Dobrovolc found holes in the perimeter. She averaged 16 points a night while adding 7.7 rebounds. The Little Falls, NY native also led MCLA in assists collecting 98 on the season. She notched nine double doubles on the season collecting season highs of 26 points in a win over Sage College, while grabbing a season high 13 rebounds in a win at Westfield State. Earlier this season, the senior recorded her 1,000th career point, only the fifth Traiblazer to accomplish the feat.
Dobrovolc was joined on the second team alongside Westfield's Jen Ashton, Salem State's Rachael Carter and Bridget Dullea, and Bridgewater's Jenna Williamson.
MCLA has advanced to the conference semifinals and will challenge second seeded Salem State Friday night at Bridgwater State's Tinsley Center at 7:30pm.
