Clarkson Spring Games

D3 sports are allowed minimal practices and only one game (or play day) during the off season. Clarkson women finished up their spring season last weekend with round robin play against three other colleges. As expected, they completing dominated play, although watching them crush a team that beat them in the fall gave me some hope for the upcoming fall season. Emily looked great at wing and striker, scoring three goals and adding four assists. A couple of other girls scored more goals over the afternoon, but they are all forwards and Emily is still getting used to what we think will be her new position. We can't wait to see her back with the Sporting women this summer.
