Faust is one of 128 student-athlete nominees.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Allstate and the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) announced on Tuesday, Aug. 5, that 128 student-athletes are being considered for selection to the inaugural Allstate NACDA Good Works Team (Fall). Providence College women's soccer midfielder Ahnna Faust (Grafton, Wis.) has been named a nominee.
The award recognizes student-athletes who excel in academics, athletics and community impact. A distinguished selection committee of athletics directors, former athletes and industry leaders will choose the final 20-member team — 10 female and 10 male student-athletes — set to be announced August 26. One student captain will also be named to represent the group.
Faust, is a senior at Providence College pursuing a Bachelors Degree in biology. She has made the dean's list all six of her semesters at Providence College and is a member of the Honors College. Faust has been inducted into four different honor societies thus far, including the Alpha Epsilon Delta Pre-Health Medical Honor Society, Sigma Delta Pi Spanish National Honor Society, Chi Alpha Sigma Student Athlete National Honor Society, and Phi Beta Kappa National Honor Society. In 2023, she was the Pre-Health Medical Honor Society Female Student Inductee of the Year for having the highest GPA. The senior will have represented her team as a part of the Student Athlete Advisory Committee for four years, serving as the Vice President of Community Engagement for the 2024-25 academic year. She will serve as the branch President during the 2025-26 academic year.
The senior has dedicated over 234 hours to community service, focusing on healthcare in the Providence area and beyond. Faust began her journey as a patient transport volunteer at Miriam Hospital, where she supported patients in their transition from hospital stays to home care. Combining her passion for healthcare and fluency in Spanish, she served at the Rhode Island Free Clinic, assisting Spanish-speaking patients with check-ins, vitals, paperwork and scheduling to ensure a welcoming and comprehensive care experience. She also volunteered at Clínica Esperanza Hope Clinic, expanding her service to include managing the clinic's food pantry, sorting donated clothing, organizing wellness programs, and distributing over-the-counter treatments. Faust's efforts at both clinics emphasized compassion, cultural competence, and a holistic approach to community wellness.
Beyond clinical care, Faust has contributed to multidisciplinary research, both locally and abroad. While studying in Puerto Rico, she led focus groups exploring physician burnout and elderly abandonment in rural areas, gaining insight into the intersection of healthcare and societal needs. At Providence College, the senior conducted molecular biology research on skin repair and presented her findings at the 2024 American Physiology Summit, publishing two abstracts. She is also co-authoring a paper on Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs), aiming to improve recovery strategies for athletes, bridging her passion for science, healthcare, and athletics while embodying leadership and commitment both on and off the field.
Faust, a senior midfielder at Providence College, has appeared in six career games for the women's soccer team. She has contributed to the program's depth and competitive culture throughout her time as a Friar.
