Bentley Will Honor Rogers’ NE10 Hall of Fame Induction Saturday

WALTHAM, Mass. – Earlier this summer, former Bentley University field hockey All-America and scoring great Mary Rogers was inducted into the Northeast-10 Conference Hall of Fame.

At halftime of the Falcons' game with LIU Post Saturday, Rogers' accomplishment will be recognized. In addition, there will be a post-game reception in the Fenway Sky Box for friends, family and alumni. With the game scheduled for an 11 am start, the halftime ceremony should begin at 11:35 am or shortly thereafter.

Rogers, who received Division II All-America honors from the National Field Hockey Coaches Association annually from 2003-06, finished her career with 205 points, a Northeast-10 record and believed to be the most in Division II history at the time. A player from Lock Haven from the '90s later surfaced with 206. She currently ranks fifth in Division II history and third in NE10 annals. Her 85 career goals also ranks fifth most in DII history and second most by an NE10 player.

During her four years, Rogers helped Bentley to a 71-21 overall record, three NCAA Division II tournaments and the 2004 NE10 regular season title. In both 2004 and 2006, the Watertown High product played in the NCAA national championship game.

Rogers had her top statistical season as a sophomore. That year, she accumulated 26 goals and 16 assists for 68 points, a total matched the Bentley single season record and currently is tied for sixth most in conference history. She owns four of the 12 highest scoring seasons in program history.

Rogers gained first-team All-America honors each of her last three seasons after earning second team recognition as a freshman. She was the ECAC Division II Player of the Year as a senior, the NE10 Player of the Year twice and a four-time first-team All-Conference honoree.

Fans coming to the game should leave extra time to get to the field as parking will be very limited. Plan on parking on the upper campus and taking the shuttle to the field.
