Nicole Bosley Bednarski ’01 rewrote the women’s soccer record book during her four years as a President.  Bednarski owns nearly every scoring record in the Washington & Jefferson College women’s soccer history. Bednarski is currently second in all-time career goals, getting edged by Jordan Toohey (66). She scored 61 career goals and added 35 assists for 157 points during her time as a President. Bednarski was the first women’s soccer player in school history to be named First Team All-Presidents’ Athletic Conference during all four years of her career. She was also selected as the 2000 PAC Most Valuable Player. 

During her freshman season in 1997, she set the single-season scoring record with 19 goals and 45 points.  She added 16 goals and three assists as a sophomore before compiling 14 goals and six assists in 1999.  During her MVP season as a senior, she proved to be more than just a scoring threat, as she set the school record with 11 assists during a 35-point season (12 goals). Washington & Jefferson won 30 matches during her career. 

A native of Charleroi, Pa., Bednarski was an all-state performer and was the most decorated recruit in W&J women’s soccer history.  She scored 117 goals in high school, including a then WPIAL record 54 goals as a senior.  Bednarski, who was also a PAC Academic Honor Roll member, is the first women’s soccer player inducted into the Washington & Jefferson Athletic Hall of Fame.  She works as an otolaryngologist at Westmoreland Head and Neck Surgery, PC.
