Our First Alumna Eagle!


The Women's Rugby Review blog reported the line-up for the Women's Eagles for their tour of England in December. What is notable is that Kati McCormick, who currently plays for the Univ. of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, will be joining the Eagles as a lock.

While alumnae of Wisconsin high school teams have featured prominently on the US U-19 team and even on the U-23 team, Kati's selection for the tour represents the first time an alumna of a Wisconsin high school team has been selected as a senior side Eagle. Kati played with the Kettle Moraine Knightmares for 4 years while in high school and was part of the 2004 team which placed 2nd at the NIT. Here is a picture of Katie (in blue) taking a tackle at the 2004 NIT, when KM earned a 2nd place finish.

Congratulations to Katie! Wisconsin will be rooting for you.
