April 9, 2004

Salisbury, MD - Senior men’s soccer midfielder Dan Meehan (Queen Anne, MD/Queen Anne’s HS) and junior volleyball/softball standout Kim Rementer (Denton, MD/North Caroline HS) have been selected as the winners of the 2004 Salisbury University male and female Scholar-Athlete Awards. Both will be honored at the SU Honors Convocation on
May 7.

The latest award caps a year of awards and honors for both student athletes.  Meehan, a finance major with a 3.95 grade-point average, earned first team All-America honors in 2003 and was also one of 11 players named to the CoSIDA Academic All-America soccer first team.

Meehan was named the Capital Athletic Conference’s 2003 Player of the Year and also selected as SU’s team MVP. He helped guide the Sea Gulls to their fourth conference championship in 2003 and a berth in the NCAA Tournament’s national quarterfinals.

Meehan has also received one of the prestigious NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships in order to continue his postgraduate study.

Rementer, a psychology major who carries a perfect 4.0 grade-point average, earned CoSIDA All-Academic honors for the second time in her career during the 2003 volleyball season. Rementer, a defensive specialist, played in 117 of 118 games for the Sea Gulls while finishing third on the team in digs with 2.36/game. She helped guide Salisbury to a school-record 16-match winning streak and a final 26-7 record in 2003. 

A three-year starter as a catcher on the softball team, Rementer has helped the Gulls to back-to-back appearances in the Division III World Series, including a national runner-up finish in 2003. Salisbury began the 2004 campaign ranked number one in the national preseason poll, and is pursuing its eighth straight conference championship this year. Rementer is also a candidate for Academic All-America honors once again this spring.
