YORK, Pa. - Wesley College's Angie Owens (Seaford, Del./Seaford) was named to the All-Capital Athletic Conference (CAC) first team, while teammate Cory Boyd (Point Pleasant, N.J./Point Pleasant) was named to the second team in voting by the conference coaches.

The two student-athletes, both sophomores, turned in record-setting performances for the Wolverines this season.  Owens established new single season rebounding record with Wesley with 299 so far, while Boyd's 177 assists this season also set a new high water mark for the program.
