Following in McHugh's footsteps and forging a scoring legacy of her own, Katie Donovan '09 came to Chestnut Hill College just two years after McHugh's swan song. A four-year captain and All-CACC First Teamer (2009), Donovan ranks second all-time in program history for points (310) and goals (275), fourth in assists (35), and sixth in draw controls (78). Her 275 goals place her third all-time in NCAA Division II. Starting her career under McHugh in 2006, Donovan made her mark on the program right away, posting 61 goals as a freshman. She upped that total to 66 as a sophomore in 2007; the program's first year of Division II competition. She offered 60 more goals as a junior (2008) and in her senior season (2009), her only as a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II student-athlete, Donovan tied the NCAA Division II record for goals in a game with 13 tallies against American International College (AIC) on March 12, 2009, and ranked 1st nationally in goals/game (5.18) and 3rd nationally in points/game (5.88) with respective season totals of 88 goals and 100 points. The 88 goals currently stand as the CACC single-season record and are tied for sixth all-time in NCAA Division II history. As the 2009 captain, Donovan was recognized with the team's MVP award and the Chestnut Hill College Athletic Director's Award. She was also the team MVP in her 2006 rookie campaign. A star in the classroom as well as on the field, Donovan was honored with a 2008-2009 Division II Athletics Directors Association (DII ADA) Academic Achievement Award.
