The University of Minnesota Duluth women's hockey team had five players named American Hockey Coaches Association (AHCA) Krampade All-American Scholars, an honor that once again recognizes varsity ice hockey players who compiled exceptional results in the classroom.

Those five Bulldogs were junior goaltender Eve Gascon, junior defenseman Ida Karlsson, freshman forward Ava MacLeod, graduate defenseman Ashley Messier and senior defenseman Krista Parkkonen. All four of UMD's upperclassmen – Gascon, Karlsson, Messier and Parkkonen are repeat honorees.

To qualify a student-athlete must have attained a 3.75 GPA for each semester and had to appear in 40% of the team's games. Exceptions were granted to injured players and back-up goalies. Schools also were required to be members of the AHCA.

Gascon was also one of just seven athletes who not only earned this academic status but were also voted as CCM/AHCA All-Americans for their on-ice play. The native of Mascouche, Quebec has earned both honors in back-to-back seasons.
