Full List of Winners

BOSTON – Northeastern women's hockey alumna Kendall Coyne was named 'Best Female Athlete' at The Globies–the second-annual award show hosted by The Boston Globe that celebrates the dynamic New England sports scene–on Monday evening at the House of Blues Boston.

Coyne won the 'Best Female Athlete' category over two of her USA Hockey teammates, Boston College alumna Alex Carpenter and the Boston Pride's Hilary Knight, as well as 2016 Boston Marathon winner Atsede Baysa.

The 2016 Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award winner, Coyne enjoyed a record-breaking senior season which culminated in the Huskies' first-ever trip to the NCAA tournament. Along the way, Coyne amassed 84 points (50 goals, 34 assists) in just 37 games en route to earning WHEA Player of the Year, First-Team AHCA All-America, and All-New England Player of the Year honors. 

More recently, Coyne was named a Top-30 finalist for the prestigious NCAA Woman of the Year award, and was honored at a banquet in Indianapolis in mid-October.

Coyne also helped Team USA capture the gold medal at the 2016 Four Nations Cup in Finland, posting four points in four games, including a goal and an assist in the championship against Canada on Nov. 5.

Coyne is the first Northeastern student-athlete to win an award at The Globies.
