Exciting UT lacrosse clinic on Sat, Nov 18 at UT Intramural Fields!

View Flyer...

(It's a large file - may take awhile.)

What Coach Jo says about the clinic:

This clinic is run by top US Lacrosse players! It isn't often to get east coast players in Texas for a clinic. Westlake will also be scrimmaging after the clinic. This is not mandatory but recommended.

What UT Women's Lacrosse PR person Megan Luther says:

  • UT Women's Lacrosse and Bounce Entertainment will be hosting a clinic on Saturday November 18th open to middle school and high school girls. This clinic will be an amazing opportunity for all levels of players to learn new things about lacrosse and really improve their game!
  • ALSO, this news just came in...Crista Samaras, the CEO of Bounce Entertainment, will also be coming to coach this clinic!! A graduate of Princeton University in 1999, Samaras was a three-time All American, two-time Ivy League Player of the Year and still holds Princeton’s record for all-time leading scorer, assists and overall points. She won a gold medal in 2001 for the United States and was the two-time Player of the Match at the 2005 World Cup en route to a silver medal finish. She has also coached at Yale University. ...so this is BIG news! If your girls weren't already excited about this clinic, they certainly should be now! I would highly recommend that your team take advantage of this opportunity!
