ORONO – Hockey players Martin Kariya and Gray Shaneberger, along with field hockey standout Jen Johnstone, have been honored by the University of Maine “M” Club with its Dean Smith Awards.

The honor is bestowed annually to the UMaine student-athletes who exhibit exemplary academic achievement, leadership and character. The winners were announced during a Saturday morning ceremony.

Johnstone, a junior from Dallas, Pa., is a secondary education major. She registered a team-high 27 points last season and was named a northeast region All-America as a midfielder.

Kariya, a junior from North Vancouver, British Columbia, is a mathematics major. He is an assistant captain on the Black Bear hockey team and ranks third on the team in points. Last season, he was named to the Verizon CoSIDA District I Academic All-America team.

Shaneberger, a junior from Sewell, N.J., is studying natural resources. Last spring, he became the first Black Bear to be named a Top Scholar-Athlete by Hockey East.

The Smith Award is named for the former UMaine basketball player who in 1990 was recognized as the nation’s top scholar-athlete.
