UD senior thrower Kelly Pohlman was named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District Second Team for women's track & field. Earlier, the six-time Atlantic 10 Shot Put Champion was named to the Atlantic 10 All-Academic Team for the third-straight year.

The Most Outstanding Field Performer of the 2006 A-10 Indoor Championship, Pohlman owns a 3.79 GPA in Psychology.

Just 10 performers from the District IV region were named to each team. District IV is comprised of schools from Alabama, Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan and Tennessee.

On the field, she is a two-time A-10 Weight Throw Champion. Three of her A-10 shot put titles have come in Indoor, three in Outdoor. This past season, she finished third in A-10 in discus and hammer in outdoor.

She is also the UD school record holder in the hammer throw and the weight throw.

UD placed fourth at the Atlantic 10 Outdoor Championship, the highest mark in the program's history.

Pohlman and teammate Amy Kremer qualified for the NCAAA Mideast Regional in Knoxville, TN.
