Alumni Weekend

The current team welcomed back members of the Trinity Women’s Lacrosse family as 13 alumni joined us for a dinner on Saturday night and an alumni game on Sunday morning. It was a very special weekend for all involved, as the alumni cheered on the Bants during the home opener against Connecticut College before joining the team to share stories and advice over dinner. Assistant Coach and Trinity alum Michelle Smith put together a slide show of photos and organized a great dinner at the Smith House on Vernon Street. At the conclusion of the dinner, the alumni, by class, gave a little advice to the current team. We were honored to have the following alums:

Class of ’82, Sally Larkin
Class of ’07, Lauren Malinowski
Class of ’08, CJ Yanofsky, Caroline Boiardi, Michelle Smith, Ellen Cohn
Class of ’09, Kristina Scontras, Carrie Disa, Jessie Schultz
Class of ’10, Jenn Calver, Sarah Remes, Kristin Phelps, Annie Cook

Advice ranged from “Don’t forget your photo I.D. before the spring break trip to Florida” to “Cherish your time as a Trinity College women’s lacrosse player." It was a special night that emphasized the strong tradition of Trinity College women’s lacrosse.

On Sunday, we reconvened for the alumni game, with the alumni showing up in blue and gold with their game faces on, while the team outfitted themselves in all things NEON. We lucked out with a BEAUTIFUL day on the turf and had a great time pitting the team of alums against the current team. It was a close match, with some questionable reffing (cough cough, KP) in favor of the alums. Overall, it was a great success!! Check out the pictures!
