The All-American was selected amongst the conference’s best.
GREENSBORO, N.C. - Wake Forest field hockey junior midfielder Meike Lanckohr was named to the 2021 Preseason All-Atlantic Coast Conference Field Hockey Team, as announced by the league on Monday.
Lanckohr heads into her third season in the Old Gold and Black after a stellar sophomore campaign in 2020-21. The Voerendaal, Netherlands native earned the first All-America honor of her career, tallying a team-best and career-high 12 points with four goals and four assists. She became the 12th Demon Deacon to reach NFHCA All-America status in the last 10 years and the 47th All-American since 2000.
Lanckohr notched a season-high tying three points in Wake Forest's 4-1 win at Duke, scoring one goal and assisting on a score. She also found the back of the net in the fall versus Syracuse (Oct. 18, 2020), Duke (Oct. 23, 2020) and Boston College (Nov. 1, 2021), while assisting on one of Wake Forest's two goals in the ACC Automatic Qualifier Game at North Carolina on April 23.
Lanckohr also garnered First Team All-ACC honors and earned a spot on the NFHCA All-South Region Team in 2020-21.
The Deacs open up the 2021 slate in Iowa City, Iowa with a pair of contests in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge against Iowa (Aug. 27) and Michigan (Aug. 29). Wake Forest hits the Kentner Stadium turf for their home opener on Sept. 4 against App State at noon.
