WHY LEHIGH? “There are many reasons that I chose Lehigh. Its prestigious academics, Division I athletics and beautiful campus are among the top. Attending Lehigh gives me the opportunity to continue playing the game I love at a very competitive level. Graduating from Lehigh makes me feel confident in having future career opportunities.”
AS A FRESHMAN (2011): Enjoyed a stellar rookie campaign as one of Lehigh’s top freshmen … Second Team All-Patriot League honoree … Finished with one goal and four assists for six points on the season, tied for fourth on the Mountain Hawks … Four assists were tied for second … Earned the Coaches Award, as presented at team’s end-of-year banquet … One of only six Mountain Hawks to start all 19 games … Made five defensive saves, fourth in the Patriot League and 13th in the nation … Dished an assist as part of Lehigh’s first-ever win against Penn (10/12) … Tallied two assists vs. Cornell (10/9) and an assist against Colgate (10/8). That earned Fratoni her first-career Patriot League Rookie of the Week honor … Made four defensive saves against Rider (10/2), the highest single-game performance in the NCAA all year … Scored first-career goal (which also marked first-career points) as part of 3-2 win against Siena (9/28) … Named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll.
BEFORE LEHIGH: Enjoyed success from day one at Cardinal O’Hara High School … Named Rookie of the Year as a freshman … Garnered Unsung Hero recognition and Honorable Mention All-Delco as a sophomore … Named both All-Catholic and All-Delco in each of her final two seasons … Cracked the first team in each as a senior … Awarded Coach’s Award as a junior ... Team captain as a senior … Named both team and league MVP … Finished senior year with 16 goals and 10 assists … Cardinal O’Hara enjoyed great success in her time, winning the Division 12 Championship as a sophomore while finishing second in the Catholic League as a junior and senior … Also played club field hockey for the WC Eagles … Participated in the Futures Program in 2010 and ’11 … Enjoyed success in the classroom as well, garnering first honors every year and finishing in the top five percent of her class … Member of the National Honor Society.
