Waterville, Maine - Following the conclusion of the 2025-26 season, Kate Olenik has once again been placed on the All-NESCAC team earning First-Team status. The junior guard is now a three-time All-Conference selection on top of her 2024 NESCAC Rookie of the Year award. 

Despite logging just 692 minutes this season, 176 fewer than her average over her first two years and only the 19th-most minutes in the conference, Olenik still finished with the seventh-highest point total in the NESCAC, scoring 337. She also posted the second-highest scoring average in the conference at 15.3 points per game. Olenik's strong junior campaign pushed her past the 1,000-point milestone and she now sits at 1,195 career points, eighth out of 20 on Colby's all-time 1,000-point scorer list, with an entire season still ahead of her.

In other statistical categories the Medfield, Mass. native posted 113 rebounds, 41 assists, 27 steals, and a .452 shooting percentage which all stand in the top-20 in the NESCAC. Olenik also scored the most points in a game this year out of everyone in the conference with 32 against Maine Maritime. 

Be on the lookout for Olenik in her senior year next season alongside the rest of the Colby Women's Basketball team.
