Colorado Springs, CO — The National Field Hockey Association (NFHCA) announced its yearly Division III Scholars of Distinction Friday with Hawks senior captain Gail Comiskey featured among more than 540 student-athletes who made the list this year.
 
The NFHCA Division III Scholars of Distinction recognizes student-athletes who have achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.9 or higher throughout the first semester of the 2025-26 academic year.
