Collegiate All-American's from Wisconsin


One media source today named their choices for the 2011-2012 Women’s Collegiate All Americans.  Two student athletes from Wisconsin made the list:  Brittany Houston, a scrumhalf from UW-Milwaukee by way of Vernon and Jane Paar, a center at Navy, by way of Brookfield.  Houston's a repeat award winner as well.  In addition, Katie Johnson, who played high school rugby in Minnessota and then UW-Milwaukee for a year, also made the team.  It's amazing to see UWM making the list multiple times along with varsity teams like West Chester and Norwich, along with big Big 10 schools like Penn St. 

It's not far-fetched to imagine seeing some recent WGR graduates being on this list in a few years! Congratulations on a special acheivement.
