Afflitto holds the Stockton mark for triples in a season (12 in 2012) and also has the second and fourth highest season totals in program history. In 2009, she recorded the second-best season totals ever at Stockton for hits and runs
 
Alicia Belko (cross country 2016-17, women's track & field 2013-17, field hockey 2013-15) was a 2017 All-American in the 3000m steeplechase and the first women's two-time NCAA Cross Country Championships qualifier in school history.

Belko was chosen NJAC Outstanding Track Athlete for the outdoor season in 2017 and NJAC Rookie of the Year for cross country in 2016. She was a five-time NJAC champion and NJAC First Team performer in indoor and outdoor track & field and two-time NJAC First Team in cross country.

He helmed the Ospreys to four consecutive NCAA Tournament berths (1993-96), the first four in program history, as well as Stockton's first three NCAA Tournament victories.
