National Field Hockey Coaches' Association announced that the Loomis Chaffee senior would be honored.

The National Field Hockey Coaches Association recently announced senior Caroline (Cally) Moran has been selected to the 2011 Gladiator High School National Academic Squad. The program recognizes high school seniors who have achieved a cumulative, unweighted grade-point average of 3.5 out of 4.0 or the equivalent through the first quarter of the 2011–12 school year.

A four-year Loomis Chaffee student, Cally is a varsity field hockey and track and field athlete and has excelled in the classroom as well. In her senior year she is challenging herself with some of LC’s most advanced classes, including Advanced Placement Senior Seminar in Literature, Anatomy and Physiology, Molecular Biology, Calculus, and Chinese IV. Cally is a peer counselor on campus and serves as a tour guide for the Office of Admissions.

Cally Moran grew up in West Hartford, attended K-5 under Dr. Ellen Rossow along with her three siblings, Conor, Samantha and Jack. She went on to attend and is a communicant at St Timothy Parish in West Hartford. She currently lives at Loomis Chaffee where her mother works.

Cally helped to captain the 2011 varsity field hockey team along with senior teammates Chloe Alexander and Devin Markison, and she was named MVP of the team this fall. In 2010 Cally was named as a Boston Globe All-Star; a Western New England, Founders League, and New England All-Star; and a member of the All-New England Team in field hockey. In the spring Cally competes in the 100-meter and 300-meter hurdles, the long jump, and the triple jump for LC track and field and was named team MVP in 2011.

Cally will transform from a Pelican to a Bear in the fall of 2012, when she will tend goal for the field hockey team at Brown University.
