PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Brown University women's ice hockey rising seniors Alli Rolandelli and Kelly Micholson will serve the 2015-16 team as captains and rising senior Hunter Davis and rising junior Maddie Woo will act as assistant captains, first-year head coach Robert Kenneally '90 announced on Tuesday.
"I'm proud to announce the naming of Alli Rolandelli and Kelly Micholson as our captains and Maddie Woo and Hunter Davis as our assistant captains," Kenneally said. "Over the past few weeks I've seen leadership out of a number of our student-athletes, but the four of them have really stepped up. We're looking forward to them leading our team as a group for next season."
An assistant captain for the 2014-15 season, Rolandelli played in 14 games and blocked 16 shots last year after missing the first semester for personal reasons. A native of Minnetonka, Minn., Rolandelli has competed in 59 career games for the Bears.
A native of Elk Grove Village, Ill., Micholson played in all 29 games a year ago and ranked second among the Bears' defensemen with 10 points on three goals and seven assists after totaling five points over her first two years. She led the team with 58 blocked shots in 2014-15 and has appeared in 78 career games for Brown.
The Mandi Schwartz Student-Athlete of the Year Award winner for Brown, Davis has played in all 29 games in each of the last two seasons and won the award from the ECAC after compiling a 4.0 GPA with a concentration in political science. A resident of Clifton Park, N.Y., Davis has played in 59 career games.
Woo has competed in all 58 of the team's games over the last two years and recorded a career-high 12 points on five goals and seven assists as a sophomore after posting three points as a freshman. The native of Plymouth, Minn., blocked 39 shots a year ago – the most of any Brown forward.
The quartet will lead a Brown program that has won the Mayor's Cup against crosstown rival Providence College in three of the last four years and will seek to make the ECAC playoffs for the first time since the 2011-12 season.
