Girls Varsity Lacrosse Senior Day

    On May 1, 2018, the Saint Rose Girls Varsity Lacrosse team held their annual Senior day. The day was created to honor and commemorate the Seniors on the team who have put in so much hard work and dedication throughout their four years of playing on the Saint Rose High School lacrosse team. The seniors on the team include Caitlin Wilson and Megan Peropat, who will both be attending Catholic University in the fall, Megan Kendall, who will going to the University of Notre Dame, Megan Merkler attending Providence college, and Kailah Cummings who is attending the University of Rhode Island. All of these seniors were honored by the underclassman and coaches at their final home game of the season. The girls had many surprises waiting for them during the game. Firstly when the girls arrived at the Saint Rose field, they were greeted by the rest of the team, both Varsity and JV, and were flooded with love and excitement for their day and the game.

The girls were surprised with generous gifts from their teammates, that included a monogrammed Hydro Flask reusable water bottle, as well as a matching tote bag with each of the seniors monogram imprinted on it. The girls then, prior to their exciting game against Saint John Vianney, had the opportunity to get called to the center of the field and receive purple and yellow roses and take a senior photo and photo with each other families. The girls also were also excited to see beautifully decorated posters and their lacrosse photo headshots blown up big for them as their teammates held up and cheered them on during this very special game. Caitlin Wilson, Senior and player on the team for four years, described her day as “ incredible, and a day I will never forget and always look back to with happy memories.” Senior day is such an amazing opportunity  for all the girls so thank you seniors for all your time and dedication. Good luck to each one of you in college and in all you hope to do in the coming years!
