NORTH ATTLEBORO, Mass. (6/19/26) - Franklin Pierce University women's golfer Lorelai Flanagan has been named the Northeast 10 Conference Women's Golf Sport Excellence Award recipient, as announced by the conference office on Friday.
The Sport Excellence Awards recognize the top student-athlete in each of the NE10's spring championship sports for excellence in both academics and athletics.
