Here's the press-release....

Top D-III Women’s Player To Receive Hurd Award (http://www.ahcahockey.com/news/0607/0109lh.html)

For those that do not know the story, Laura graudated from Elmira in 2005 as the All-Time NCAA D3 Career Scoring leader with 237. She passed away in a car accident this past summer. :( (still brings tears to my eyes)

I think we can all say this is a tremendous way to remember Laura after what she gave to not only Elmira College but Division 3 women's hockey as a whole during her 4 years.

Great job D3 coaches of the American Hockey Coaches Association!

EDIT: Here's a link also to the thread over the summer that we had on the board after Laura's passing.

Very good. A true no-brainer decision if I ever saw one.

Couldn't be an easier or better decision! It adds to the honor.
