WASHINGTON, D.C. - Emily Moehringer, a recent graduate of the Catholic Cross Country/Track & Field program, was named as Catholic's nominee for the NCAA Woman of the Year award. 

Eligible female student-athletes are nominated by their member school. Each conference office then reviews the nominations from its core member schools (and sponsored sports) and submits its conference nominee(s) to the NCAA. Then, in the Fall, the NCAA Woman of the Year selection committee identifies the top 30, 10 from each division, and from there selects three finalists from each division. The Committee on Women's Athletics then selects the winner from the nine finalists.

Moehringer, the only five time All-American in Catholic history, recently completed an excellent career as a student-athlete while also finding time to give back to both her hometown and D.C. communities. A 3.9 student in Catholic's Honors Program with a degree in nursing, Moehringer was named to the College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District Team three times. She was also a five-time United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Accoiation (USTFCCCA) All-Academic selection. 

The Landmark Conference's Indoor Track & Field Senior Scholar-Athlete competed at four NCAA Championships, earning five All-America honors, including becoming the first female athlete since Andrea Galeano in 2019 to earn First Team All-America honors with a seventh-place finish in the 1,500 this past spring. She is a 12-time All-South Region selection in track & field and a one-time All-South Region honoree in cross country. Moehringer was a 13-time All-Landmark choice in track & field while two more in cross country. She leaves Catholic as the holder of six program records and three Landmark Conference records. 

Moehringer's contributions to service included Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King, Jr. days of service at Catholic, time spent with So Others Might Eat (SOME), Sacred Heart Dinners, BuildOn, and a clinical practicum in Costa Rica.
