Where Are They Now?
For many years the Syracuse University Field Hockey program has produced first-class athletes and students. Now after 39 years of existence, the program continues to add to its rich graduate pool of Division I athletes. Not only have the alumnae of the university’s program thrived on the field during their years spent playing for the team, but they have continued to thrive in life. With a diverse array of careers and professions ranging from motherhood, teaching and pharmaceutical sales to freelance photojournalism, mechanical engineering and design, we continue to follow the progress of the alumnae while building the athletic and academic future of the current student-athletes.
Below is the current list of the Syracuse University Field Hockey program alumnae and where they are now. If you are an alumna of the program and wish to add your information to the list or update your current information, please contact Josh Waldman at jmwaldma@syr.edu.
We would also like to feature alumni on the field hockey page of SUAthletics.com. So, if you have any news (I.E. child birth, marriage, winning an award) about your life please let us know so we can share your story with others.
