Graduation Day!

A great day to Graduate!  Our defensive MVP, Erin Proctor, shown here on Saturday, will proceed almost directly to graduate school at the University of Virginia next month.  Congratulations to her and to Dorie Gedridge, who will complete her teaching internship in the Fall, and Liz Seligman, who will become our Graduate Assistant Coach beginning this coming season.

Congrats and Good Luck to all the Spring graduates out there!

Alumni Game

What a Beautiful Day for Soccer in the FSU Stadium!  Our alumni gathered to challenge the current undergrads on Saturday in our annual alumni game and although the current FSU team prevailed, the alumni group was terrific.  3 Former Conference Players of the Year and 8 All-Conference players represented the alumni team in a very competitive contest on a gorgeous Spring day in Frostburg.

Relay for LIfe

We've raised over $4,000 for the American Cancer Society this year, shattering our previous records and raising more than any single student group at FSU.   Campus-wide, Frostburg will donate over $50,000 to the ACS as part of our Relay for Life event on campus this year.  Pictured below are team members gathering for our Relay event on Friday night and even Coach Lou was willing to don a TuTu in our efforts to fight cancer.

Winter Break

We always seem to have a long winter break at Maryland colleges. Good time to enjoy friends and family and the Holidays.  You also get to see scenes like this in Western Maryland.  This photo was taken with an iphone last week on the way to the Wisp Resort at Deep Creek Lake, 30 miles from campus.
