The girls tried out for the DC Metro region back in April,
after being recommended by their coach. During their first tryout, they competed
against over 200 local girls for a spot on one of the five DC Metro teams.
After making team two last year, Taylor made the top team this year. Kaitlyn
made team two and Christine made team three. Freshmen Maddie McCormick ’19 and
Hadley Nolan ’19 were also selected as alternates. Holton lacrosse coach,
Whitney Groseclose, served as the head coach for team four. Head varsity coach, Janet McCormick, also
serves as the US Lacrosse Regional representative for the tryouts and DC Metro teams.

Following the Lacrosse National Championship over Memorial
Day Weekend, Holton students, alumnae, and coaches volunteered for the
Tewaaraton Foundation who put on clinic for the DC area with the Tewaaraton Award finalists. The Tewaaraton Award is given annually to the most outstanding
college lacrosse player.

This year was a particularly exciting year as Taylor
Cummings (University of Maryland) became the first player – man or women- to
win three Tewaaraton Awards! Stephanie Hong ’19 was particularly excited to
meet this outstanding player face to face. The girls not only volunteered their
time for the clinic, but came back to assist the Tewaaraton Foundation with the
awards ceremony at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the
American Indian. Thanks to Catie
Mulligan ’16, Stephanie Hong ’19, Hadley Nolan ’19, Annie Holm ’19, Maddie
McCormick ’19, and Virginia Asher ’19
for volunteering. Special thanks to alumnae
Elizabeth Bragale ’15 who came back
as the stage manager for the awards for the second year in a row.
