October 26, 2022 | Soccer
ATHENS, Ga. – Georgia graduate midfielder Abby Boyan was named to the Southeastern Conference Community Service Team, as announced by the league office in Birmingham Wednesday afternoon.
Boyan has volunteered with the Clarke County Mentor Program since fall 2018, serving as a mentor to students at Barrow Elementary School while offering support, advice, and encouragement. Boyan has also volunteered with the Special Olympics of Northeast Georgia since spring 2019, assisting the organization with its annual "Hometown Heroes and Rivals" baseball game and Fall Prom. The Spring Lake, New Jersey native is also the co-president and co-founder of Caring Senior Services (CSS), a non-profit organization founded to interact with the elderly and increase their activities through positive interaction and support.
Boyan has served as a team captain for the past three seasons, along with twice being named to the United Soccer Coaches All-Southeast Region Team and All-SEC Team. She recently set the record for most career starts in program history and is on pace to break the mark for career appearances. She has been named to the SEC Academic Honor Roll and J. Reid Parker Director of Athletics Honor Roll in each season of her career, along with earning three Caterpillar Scholar Athlete honors. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in Marketing in May 2022.
In addition to her achievements on the field and in the classroom, Boyan has served as a team representative to the UGA Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (S.A.A.C.) and was inducted into the Georgia Way Leadership Education and Development (L.E.A.D.) Academy in 2020. She is also an ambassador for the Georgia Way's Life After Sport and Service program, helping student-athletes engage with campus organizations.
Boyan and her Georgia teammates close their regular season Thursday evening at Mississippi State. The match will kick off at 7:30 p.m. and will be streamed live on SEC Network+.
