Romanowski's Defensive Player of the Year selection marks the second time in her career that she has earned the honor, joining Emily Sheehan as the only Lady Royal to receive the award twice. The senior continues to anchor Scranton's dominant defensive unit, which tops the nation by limiting opponents to just 42.1 points per game this season. Romanowski leads the conference with 104 steals, which ranks eighth in the NCAA, and set a new Landmark single-season record. She is also making a strong presence on the glass and on offense for the Lady Royals, totaling 157 rebounds while leading the Landmark with 116 assists and ranking third in the nation with a 3.74 assist-to-turnover ratio.
