why thousands of people across the nation are proud to call themselves alumni

of Washington and Lee. W&L had much to celebrate in 2007. The ope ning of John and

PresidentS Message
To the Class of 2007:
It is a pleasure for me to offer this brief introduction to this
years Calyx. Congratulations to the members of the Class of
2007 on your graduation from Washington and Lee! Thi s is a
wonderful achievement and I am very happy for you and your
families.
You arrived four years ago and spent your first few days
meeting each other in various settings: move-in day, the
freshman barbeque, the Honor System presentation, ice-breaker
events on dorm, on teams, and in the classroom. Friendships
formed in those early days are strong now and it is important
that they remain strong for many, many years to come. One of
the reasons Washington and Lee is such a special place is its
people. At the end of the day it is people and their shared
relationships that make the difference in our lives. It is through
these personal interactions that we define ourselves and our
experiences.
The photos in this retrospective capture those friendships and
relationships. As you turn the pages of this book in the months
and years ahead you will see images of students, faculty, and
staff, all of whom you can call your friends. I encourage you to
make every effort to maintain these important friendships in
the years ahead.
One way you can do that is to remain active in the life of the University. You now have joined an active alumni body
of more than 23,000 men and women throughout the world. The personal quality of your W & L education is all too
uncommon these days. Please join your friends and fellow alumni in staying engaged in the affairs of the University so
that together we can continue to move W &L forward while preserving its distinctive features.
Kim joins me in wishing the best for each and every member of the Class of 2007, and we would like to extend a
standing invitation for you to come by and visit us at the Lee House whenever you are able to return to campus.

Kenneth P. Ruscio

Campu s Life: this section is about all of the activities and
events that almost no other college could eve n comprehend of
doing. There's the infamous Orientation Week. when freshmen
learn what "the Polehouses" and "County Seat" are and that
sorority rul es put a big damper in freshme n gi rl s plans.
Homecoming and Parents' Weekend are just an exc use for alums
old and new (and parents who wish that they were alums) to come
back and party with the current undergraduates for a weekend.
Students grab a date and ride down Chri stmas trees in December,
and then come back fro m break in January ready to dance up a
stom1 in S.A. R.A.H's annual Lip Sync contest. Thi s year marked
the I OOth anni ver ary of the first Fancy Dress Ball, and after
months of pre paration by the Fancy Dress Steering Committee,
students, fac ulty. and alums do nned black and white only to
boogie in the W arner Center gyms. Spring Term is the favorite
time of year for W &L students, which also includes Alumni
Weekend and when students arrive back from their winter study
abroad programs. But thi s section really encompasses what it
means to be a W ashington and Lee student. It makes W&L a
unique un iversity, one that seniors wish they were never leaving
and one that alumni wish they had never left in the first place.

Thb year W &L celebrated many anniversaries, but the Centennial Fancy Dress held
on March I 0. 2007 was certainly the favorite. Co-Chairs Niki Tsiknakis and Lily de Grazia
did a fantastic job coordinating "The Party of the Century," a black-and-white masquerade
ball. Alumni. both young and old. came back to W&L for the weekend to boogie with The
Pat Patrick Band. a 1-+ piece show band from Nashville, Tennessee that wowed the crowd
with M otown and Classic Rock oldies. It even changed up "Sweet Home Alabama" to
"Sweet Home Virginia " to please the W&L crowd.
Students looked forward to two surprises : fireworks from the Law School field and a
confetti drop at midnight. Even though there was a rumor that Tom Petty (sounds like
confetti ) was playing at midnight, the guests were thrilled with both displays. And after the
dance was over. Evans Dining Hall hosted a midnight breakfast for all of the hungry
dancers. Mary Stuart Couch. the Decorations Co-Chairman, was really impressed with how
well the dance went. "The chairs were all creative and we were all willing to work hard
enough to put a good party together on a pretty tight budget. Being a part of such a great
tradition will always be one of my best memories of W &L."

\\'hen someone mentions Spring Tem1 around a W &L student. the first thin g that
comes to mind is. "A hhhh ... those are the days." Students take advantage of the last six
weeks of school to do th ings they'll never be able to get away with once they graduate. And
since students on ly have to take two classes (well , for seniors. probably just one). they've
got time on their hands. Day- lo ng tubing trips down the Maury Ri ver, hanging out at the
Buffalo Creek .Music Festi val fo r 4 8 straight hours. and competing in Sigma Chi 's Derby
Days are j ust a few of the incredible things that Spring Term has to offer. W &L also kicked
off the :2008 Democratic Moc k Convention by inviting General Wes ley Clark to speak at
Lee Chapel. foll owed by a cooko ut and band parties in the Red Square fraternitie s. But
eYen with all of these fu n-fi lled events, the students still found time to support their
successful sports teams thi s spring, including the women's tennis team, who won their first
nati onal champions hip ever.
Spring Tem1 is always a good way to end the year, especially for the seniors. They
reminisce about their fo ur years here and finally reali ze how hard it is to say good-bye to

tudy Abroad
This year. several Washington and Lee students took the opportunity to study abroad
in countries all across the globe. Students spent time in places like Italy. France. England,
Spain. Greece. Austria, the C zech Republic, Hun gary, Denmark. the Netherlands. Ireland,
India. and China just to name a few . During the ir time overseas, students embraced new
cultures. languages. rituals. and studies. Students not onl y spent time in their respec ti ve
univer~i tie s studying. but they also spent wee kend a nd vacati o ns traveling to th e far corners
of the world. thus reaping the benefits of a worldly educati on. Junior Kelly Boss stated o f
her experience in Rome. "It was the highlight of my college years. Spending time abroad
mvay fro m the small W&L community really broadened my horizons ." Juniors An ne
Russell Calvert and Jeanne Smith both remarked on the significance of their homestay with
French families. stating that it was the defining characteristic of their abroad ex peri ence .
With the aid of the International Studies Program, more and more students each year
embark o n a life changing journey.

Freshmen year is always a blast. From freshmen Pre-Orientation trips. which are
designed to aid in the development of strong ties and a sense of community early on. to
Ori entation Week. which is the beginning of not only a year at Washington and Lee but
essentially the official beginning of a four-year stay. a lot happens in those hot. summer
days. Fall Term serves as one of the best teaching experiences for the freshmen. for it is
here that they first encounter the academia and rigor that is Washington and Lee. But that's
not to say that all learning happens within the classroom, because Fall Tem1 is also the
time when they learn and experience W &L's social scene. Thoughts of home are often the
last thing on their minds until Thanksgiving and Christmas roll around. and there is a
sudden dash and the campus becomes e mpty. These few short weeks are concluded with
the infamous Winter Term. In thi s term. there is more to dread than the cold because thi s is,
in th e words of an old adage, when the rubber hits the road. Freshmen, with the knowledge
of how things work at Washington and Lee. are put to the test of juggling their lives, so
Fancy Dress and February Break come at the most opportune times. With the warming of
the weather comes the one thing that upperclassmen have been promising and the freshmen
have been awaiting since 0-Week: Spring Term. With only one or two classes and possibly
a P. E., fre shmen are rewarded for their hard work as they usher in the summer. And with
the end of thi s mini -vacation comes th e variety of the summer and the end of the once in a
lifetime e xperience, which is freshmen year.

op!Jomores
Sophomores returned to fa miliar territory and old fri ends for what
many refer to as the sophomore slump, or their second year. Despite
the name, sophomore year turned out to be quite an experience.
Sophomores no longer had to li ve in the freshmen dorms, and in stead
chose to li ve in Greek housing, Woodscree k apartments. or Gaines.
Whether playi ng a sport, parti cipating in an organi zati on on campus, or
\'Oi unteering with one of the many organi zations in the community.
sophomores continued to take advantage of all the opportunities that
W&L has to offer. For those who choose to parti cipate in Greek life,
this is the year when students finall y get to experience the other side of
rus h. Academi cally, sophomore year is a time to continue fulfillin g
requi re ments while thinking more seri ously about poss ible maj ors.
Although sophomores must declare their major at the end of the year,
many continue to switch majors while trying to find the right area of
study. Student s made the most out of their second year. having fun
while balancing academics and other obli gations before having to think
too seriously about their futures.

Junior year was a time for W &L students to enjoy college life to the
fullest. Havi ng completed most of their general education requ irements in
their freshmen and sophomore years, juniors found themselves well into
coursework for their major and enjoying th e opportunity to study things
that were of interest to them. Many juniors also took time to get away
from Lexi ngton and study abroad in numerous locations across the globe.
The new option to take a spri ng tenn away from Lexington made study
abroad opti ons even more e nticing. and also made internships possible.
These opportunities to study off campus provided valuable experiences
that could not be found within Lexington. Juniors enjoyed studying
subjects th ey enjoyed, yet not having to worry about the real world
pressures faced by seniors, such as the job search or graduate school
application process. Aside from academics. juniors enjoyed the
opportuni ty to live off campus for the first time in their college career.
Leases were signed. furniture was bought, and numerous trips to WalMart were made as students worked to make their off-campus houses and

It's the last hurrah, unfortunatel y. The class of 2007
fini shed Orientation Week and reali zed that they had less
tha n a year left at Washington and Lee, and took
adva ntage of those last days. They finished their majors
and took classes that inspired them . They perfected their
resumes and interview etiquette for future jobs and
graduate sc hool s. They smiled during fraternity and
sorority rush week just one last time. They ate pizza and
drank beer and wine at the I 00 Days party in Evans Dining
Hall. And they laughed , danced, sang, and cried with their
closest friends from these past four years. The seniors even
legitimi zed most of their actions by saying, "Whatever, it's
the last time I'll be able to do it!"
So, on a sunny day in early June, they said goodbye to
their best friends, their favorite professors, the beloved
Honor System, and beautiful Lexington. The members of
the class of 2007 are proud to say that they are alumni of
Washington and Lee University, a place of honor and
tradition. And a place where people have one helluva time.

I was thinking about what wo uld leave the greatest impact
me from my time here at W &L, so I started looking through
yearbooks to gain insight into past seniors' psyches. Or as
insight as you can gain from a two paragraph blurb (which
than you would think). Everyone talks about how nice
buildings are. R.E. Lee. the quality professors. their hil arious
{ends. their kickin' fraternity/sorority . the Honor Code. and
I

l(es. And I agree. these are all well and good. Especwlly the
~es. Gotta love those changing le aves.
But for me, far and away. I'll always cherish the fact that no
e stole any of my stuff. Maybe they thought they'd get
pelled. maybe I just have a lot of crap. but no one stealing any
it was pretty awesome. I don't like to carry things farther than
ave to. so if I can leave my books in the library , my backpack
the Commons. and my computer in the C-School for three
ys at a time, no less then that is a place I can be happy. So
anks to my friends for bein g friends with me, thanks to my
ofes sors for educating me, and thanks to e\'eryone else for not
aling from me. Great.

When I applied to colleges, Washington and Lee was not
my first choice. It was probably not even my second
choice, but looking back on the past four years, I am glad
that I came here. When I first an·ived in Lexington, I
remember experiencing a sort of culture shock. The place
and the people seemed so different from anything I had e\o,
encountered. In the end, that has been the most valuable
part of my experience here. Students and professors have
challenged my views, supported me, and helped me grow
into the person that I am now. Over four years, there
been good times and bad times. Both have been imr•Arlt'ln•
to me. I cannot believe that I am leav ing thi s town and
beautiful campus. Wherever I go from here, I know that I
wi II take it all with me the people, the places, and the
experiences.

One of the things I'll mi ss most are the big
nds at W &L--Homecoming, Parents' Weekend,
stmas Weekend. FD, and Alumni Weekend . No
ter how bu sy the campus was with wo rk, it wo uld
ways grind to a halt to celebrate. During those times
would refl ect on how special the W&L experi ence
;--going to sorority houses at intermi ss ion during
otball games , see ing parents celebrating more than
eir kids, watching Santa Clauses run wild, being
azed at the transformation of Doremu s at FD, and
atching the alumni return in droves. And they would
tum in droves not onl y for Alumni Weekend but for
I big weekends. And it was then espec iall y that I
auld realize that W &L is a trul y unique fo ur years of
ur li fe and think how happy I am that I ha\·en't
aduated. That's what I'll mi ss most--being able to
ink, thank God I'm still a student.

Some of the first things that come to mind when I reflect on my fm
years at Washington and Lee are the beautiful campus and surroundin
areas that offer so much to do, from hiking to feeding camels to tubin
the Maury. The second realization is that in addition to all the great
times that I remember having here. there are probably just about as
many that I dont remember. That is one of the things that makes W &L
so special to me. Where else can you study in an atmosphere that is
built on so much hi story. tradition, and academic rigor while
sim ultaneously engagi ng in all manners of Pole House debauchery? I
am sincerely grateful not only to all the great friends that I have made
here. but also the many professors with whom I have forged strong
relationships with throughout my four years. The Washington and Lee
communi ty has given me so much and prepared me to make the
transition into the real world. but that is partly why it is so hard to say
good-bye. To be honest, I believe that the ancient Japanese art of haik
is the onl y true way to ex press my feelings about thi s hallowed place.

For the past two yea rs, our regular spot for

ry Don Tequil a. After an ex hausting rug by
e or ultra-intense intramural football game.
thing hits the spot like a Jumbo Te xas or chips with
te mysteriou s white sauce that Davis likes so muc h
'veird ). In fact, we enjoy our time at Donny T s so
uch that we even co ntemplated dropping the three
ndred dollars to get our names put on the cups right
xt to the add for th e masse use/ventriloquist/ public
eaking/clowning business. When J stopped to
nsider what I love so much about going to Do nn y
' , I realized that it is not the #5 Combo. What m~tkes
ing to Don Tequilas worthwhile is the chance to
tch up with friend s. Retlecting on the past fo ur

In recall ing the past fo ur years I have spent here at school,
time see ms to have passed too qui ckl y. That first week of
orient ation reall y does set the pace fo r the rest of school: a
ending schedul e of work and fun. The parties and the sunny
afternoons hanging out with fri e nds are obvious things that will
be mi ssed. M ost all college students ex perience these things. BL
W & L is a uniqu e pl ace ; the bubble we are graduating fro m is a '
singular ex perience in thi s world . It 's the cl ose ness of the entire!
stude nt body. in which eve n the most competiti ve stude nts get
along wi th the nonstop parti ers. It's the Honor System , which w
saw reall y does work thi s year (for the first tim e in over a
decade). It's the overwhelming sense of hi story and tradition w
encounter on a da il y bas is. A nd heck. it's even the occasional
invi tations to dinner or dri nks at The Palms with a professor.
We will have memories that cannot even be imagined by oth
coll ege grads. I think thi s is what has gotten me over my initial
apprehension about gradu ating. Like all the alums before us, w
wi ll always be long to and have a home in the W & L communit
because we will always be tied to it through the relati onships a
tradit ions we experi enced whil e here.

Out of all the things that W &L is known for. having
top-notch facu lty ranks near the top of the li st. Not only
are W &L faculty known for being dedicated researchers
and leaders in their field. they are also di stinguished
teachers. From the freshman advising dinners to aftergraduation lunches. faculty members were known for
developing meaningful relation ships with students that
helped nurture both their academic and personal growth.
[tis not uncommon for cell phone numbers to appear on
syll abi, or for professors to invite students over to dinner.
These personal connections showed the commitment of
fac ulty to the success of their students. It is due to the
fac ulty's dedication that student leave W &L as critical
thinkers. prepared to enter the 21st century workforce.

Organi zations provided yet another dimension to
Campus Life thi s year. Most W&L students were
involved with at least one. if not several. organizations on
campus . With over I 00 organization to choose from.
students were sure to find something that fit their
interests.
Sen·ice organi zati ons all owed students to experience
the greater Lexington community and use their skill s to
help others. Volunteers with Nabors Service League.
Habitat for Humanit y, and APO. among others,
coord inated various projects throughout the year.
Students could be found reading to children at Waddell.
serving dinner to the elderl y at the Mayflower, or building
homes for the less fort unate through Habitat for
Humanity. Cultural organizations helped promote
diversity on campus. Politi cal organ izati ons were active
as we ll. as preparations for Mock Con 2008 were well
unde rway .
Organizations all owed W&L students to meet new
people and be exposed to new viewpoi nts. They allowed
students to escape the drudgery of coursework while still
participating in something meaningful. thu s greatly
enriching the W &L experience.

Before the theater department's season started in the fall of 2006, a group of 17 W &L
students who called themselves "The General's Players" premiered Neil Labute's Tits and
Blood at the world-famous Edinburgh Festival Fringe during the summer. They performed the
play to \V &L audiences in Johnson Theater in the Lenfest Center upon their return. In
October, the theater department held the third annual Student Showcase where students
selected their own performance of choreographed dance and various songs and scenes from
musicals and plays. Then in November, W &L held the Flournoy Playwright Festival 2006,
which featured two plays performed by students: Paula Vogel's How I Learned to Drive and The
Long Christmas Ride Home. Next, a new look at The Odd Couple, Oscar and Felix came to the
Keller Theater stage in Lenfest. The end of winter term produced the annual and popular One
Acts, a result of the theater department's directing class. This year the four acts that were
performed were The G Word, Heights, After You, and Mafia On Prozac. To wrap up spring
term, students performed Cole Porter's Kiss Me Kate in Keller Theater in late May.

Athletes at Washin gton and Lee had nothing sho rt o f a
successful year. Team records and ODAC Championships
were amazingly common, and th e General s proved that
their competitiveness bri ngs them succe ss o n the playing
field. W &L eve n gained nati onal attention as the women's
tennis team scored a nati onal championship in May,
bringing a unique honor to the school and athletic
program. Aside fro m varsity sport s, many general s also
participated in intermural or club sports, adding yet
another aspec t to student life. Victories were earned and
friendships \Ve re formed o ver lo ng hours of practice and
competition. Many stude nt s cherished the opportunity to
be part of an amazing athletic program while still being at
a school know n for it's academic vigor. No matter how
many games are won or lost, it is certain that the W &L
athletics progra m w ill continue to make the university
proud in ye ars to come.

There\ ah\ a) s next sea,on i' often a popular rally cr) in
spons. giving much needed hope and opti mism when the
,ea,on end,. However. for the 2006-07 Washington and Lee
\\Omen's ha,kethall team. ne't season is going to have a lot to
li ve up to. ,ince this 'ea,on wa' 'uch a success.
The Generab set program precedent aero's the h<>ard
during their 2006-07 campaign -- from their 16 win, ( 16-1 I)
to a se\·en-game winning 'treak. The squad made its fourth>traight appearance in the ODAC Women'> Basketball
Tnurnament. competed in just its second all-time tournament
,emitinal. claimed its first in-sea,on tourname nt title since the
1997-98 sea,on and upset a ranked opponent for the lirst time
in program history.
Fourth-year Head Coach ;\Iandy King's team opened the
'cason by winning the Swanhmore Tip-OffC ia>sic and
placing two Generals on the all-tournament team. Junior
forward Kristen Krouchick (Holland. Pa. l be2an the sea,on bv

earning MVP honors at the classic and was j~i ned by
teammate sophomore guard Bethany Ridenhour (\\'e,twood.
N.J.) on the all-tournament team. The General s hit a
stumbling block in December and January. dropping eight n r
nine contests and playing the leagues top three teams over a
fiye-dav stretch. Still. the Blue and White rebounded from
that sl..id to post a thrilling 76-68 OYertime victory at
Lynchhurg on January 12. W&L hit its 'tride folll owing that
con test. posting win' in eight of its next nine outings and
setting a new program record for consecu ti,·e vic torie' with
'even-straight triumphs. During that streak. the Generals
po>ted a 65-50 win over then No. 2-t Bridgewater for the
programs lirst-ever win m·er a nationally-ranked foe.
Succe's conti nued for the Blue and White as the regu larseason dwindled and it ended the conference schedule with
two home" ins to 'olidify the sixth ,eed for the ODAC
Tournament.
De>pite losing both games to Ea,tern 1\lennonitc during
the regular 'cason. the po,t-season match-up with the thirdseeded Royab would ha,·e a much different outcome. T he
Generals won the defensive battle. 53--B. to earn their seco nd
appearance in the ODAC se mitinals since 1999.
While the Generals fell to second-seeded Virginia
Wesleyan (73-62l in the semifinal,. their team

Hunsin ger edited the \\'&Land ODAC record books
several ti~es during her final season. completing her career ·
one of the most prolific post players in "hoot history. She
became the \\'&Land ODAC all-time leading rebounder
( I.O.t6) and abo broke her own program record for blocks in
sea,on 1100 ). set the new standard for career blocks (263) an
changed her own game-record for blocks with nine on two
occa,ion,. She also 11ined with a triple-double on two
outings. registering 18 point,, 15 boards. nine bloc ks in a 6-1
5-t win over Mary Baldwin and 12 points. seven rebounds.
and nine blocks in an 87-.t.t win at Holl in, .
Krouo.:hick also revi sed the record boob. most notably b)
becoming the seve nth player in school hi story to score I ,000
point,. She also registered three ~0-po in t games. incl uding
scoring :?.2 points and grabbing I0 rebounds in the upset of
Bridgewater.
Also contributing to the teams impressive accompli shme
this season were Ridenhour. j u nior forward s Hayley James

Kai tlyn Kamp 1Bloomington , 1\linn.).
Ridenhour came off the bench to add 9.0 poi nts per game
"hile Kane contributed 5.2 point, per game and .t..t rebound
per game. Jame' came on late in the season. after being
injured in the early going. and areraged 13.2 ppg and 9.8 rp
in the tina! live games of the season. She abo shot a blbteri
.622 (23-37) from the 11oor and .577 ( 15-26) from long-rang
over that 'arne stretch . Wolff set career-hig hs this season in
point' ( 16 n. Emory & Henry ). rebounds ( I 0 \'S . Virginia

had started 22-,traight games and had averaged 6.0 points
con test before a knee inj ury ended her sca,on. Kamp saw ke
minutes in all 27 conte,ts. averagi ng 3.5 poi nts and .t.O boar

Fi llin g Hunsinger's shoes will be nearly impossi ble, but
wi th nine returnees and some exciting new blood. next se
look' very promising for the Washington and Lee women's
ha,ketball team to continue its quest to remain among the

\\' &L entered the 2006 season coming off of two-straight ODAC Championships. but boasted a
roster that included just one senior. three juniors. fi\·e sophomores and eight freshmen.
Any doubts about the team were silenced at the first meet of the sea~on. where the Generals
claimed the \V &L In vitational title and placed four runners in the Top I 0. with the e lde~t runner
being sophomore Becca Taylor (Hami lton. Ohi o). who won the race with a time of 20:5-+.
The youth movement continued all season and the next week would be no different as sophomore
Jackie Burns (Burke. Va.) ~purred the Generals to a fifth place lini~h at the NYU Invitational by
placing third overall ( 19:33.0). She was followed by a quartet of freshmen led by Dorothy Todd
(Watkin~ ville. Ga. ), who fini shed 2-+th (21 :00.-+ ).
\V &L began setting its sight s on a third straight ODAC title on Oct. 7 by winning the Division
Ill State Champion~hip on the same course that would host the ODAC Championship just three
weeks later. Burns finished fourth (25 :41.79). while fre~hman Kat Telfeyan (Chesapeake . Va.)
crossed the tape in lith place (23:37.54).
At the Gettys burg Invitational. Burns won the race in 2-+:36.60 en route to garnering ODAC
Runner of the Year honors for the second-consecutive year. Telfeyan cro~sed the tape in second
place (25: 17.20) and was named the ODAC Rookie of the Year. Taylor finished eighth (26:3 8.70),
while Todd was lOth (26 :55.20). Senior Jenny Ratzel (26:57.90/llth) and freshmen Mary Frances
Weatherly (Tuscaloosa, Ala. ) and Lizz Krausnick (Memphis, Tenn.) joined Taylor and Todd on the
Second Team AII-ODAC squad as the Generals claimed seven of the Top I-+ finishers.
The Generals fell just short of qualifying in the NCAA South/Southeast Regional (3rd of 26 teams),
but Bums and Telfeyan both qualified as individuals after finishing fifth (23: 13.0) and ninth
(23:-+0.7). respectively. Taylor joined them on the all-region team after finishing 22nd overall
(24:3 2.2).

The sheer number of storylines as>ociated with the 2007 Washin gton and Lee women's lac rosse
team may be one of the bigges t signs of its successful season. From their appearance in the NCAA
quarterfinals-- to the coachin g final e of Head Coach Jan Hathorn-- to the stitling defense that led the
NCAA in scoring defense-- the tale is not a simple narrative.
The saga began in late February as the Generals opened the season with four-straigh t win >.
including their first-ever win over then-rank.ed # 13 St. Mary> (Il-l 0). Despite a ti ght 11 -9 loss to
eve ntual-Nation al Cham pion Franklin & Marshall , W&L closed out the regul ar season by winning
nine of its next I 0 contest and entered the ODAC Tourn ament with an unblemi shed 8-0 mark in
league play. The Generals then used their homefield advant age to post a 21--1 rout of Lynchburg in
the semifinals and a 10--1 win over Roanoke in the finals to capture their fifth -straight ODAC title.
After its commanding performance in the ODAC Tournament. W &L hosted a first-round ga me
wi th the College of Wooster. where the story was all about the Evans sisters. Senior att ac ker Kell y
Eva ns (Lexi ngton. Va.) ta llied two goals and three ass i>ts. while sophomore mid fi elder Colleen Evans
(Lexington, Va.) added four goals in a 1-1--1 vic tory. The win gave the Generals the chance to take on
Sali sbury , who they had not defeated since 1993. In the second round, the Blue and White gave the
Seagulls one of its best challenges of the season. Each team led by as many as two goals before a
three-goal run by Sali sbury broke a 6-6 tie and sealed the win for the Gull s, concluding the season for
W&L wi th a 15--1 overall record. Junior Megan Slosson (Coc keysvi lle, Md.) led W&L with two goal s
and two ass ists, whi le junior goalkeeper Sarah Tilbor (Old Greenwich, Conn.) made 13 saves on the
day .
While the loss to Salisbury signaled the end for the seven seniors. it also spelled the end of Jan
Hathorns tenure as a coach at Washington and Lee. Hathorn. who will be ath letic director beginning
in Jul y. served as wo men's lacrosse coach for nearl y two decades. She was named ODAC Coach of
the Year for the ninth time and won her ninth ODAC title during the 2007 season.
Several individuals also gained leag ue, region and nati onal recognition. led by junior defender Kat
1\lichaels (Virginia Beach, Va.). who earned First Team All-ODAC, First Team All-Reg ion and Third
Team All-Ameri ca status. Michaeb spearheaded the W&L defense that ga ve up a paltry and NCAA
All-Divisions- low -1.86 goals per game . Kelly Evans and senior Maggie Megear (Cold Spring
Harbor, N.Y.) each earned First Team All-ODAC and All-Region honors, whi le sophomore Kel si
Robin>on (West Ches ter. Pa.) wa> tabbed First Team All-ODAC and Second Team All-Region.
Rounding out the Gene rals award -winners were Slosson and Tilbor, who were both named second
team all-conference and second team all-region .
While the departure of impact players and the head coach can not be overlooked, plenty returns for
another run in 2008 . Michaels. Slosson and Ti lbor wi ll look to add just as much drama, intri gue and
star-studded performances nex t season.

The 2006-07 Washington and Lee riding team
was a team in transition after winni ng the
programs first ODAC Championship a season
ago. The Generals lost both of their AII-O DAC
riders to graduation (four-time IHSA Nati onal
Qualifier Caitlin Lane and Kat ie Goodrich) and
faced the tragedy of losing their coach to a battle
with cancer the previous summer.
The early portion of the schedule was as much
about find ing a team identity as anything, but
several riders stepped up early, including junior
Ashley Billman (New York. N .Y.), who won the
open tlat in the firs t meet of the year.
Juni or Kathryn George (Haden. Ala.) placed
first in the walk-trot in the next meet three weeks
later at Hollins University and later qualified for
the regional championships with her performance
at the Sweet Bri ar Invitational. Sophomore Sarah
Bujtas (1\ lount Tabor, N.J.) also qualified for
regionals in the intermediate fences at Sweet
Briar. whi le junior Lilly Haywood (Raleigh,
N.C.) and senior Brittany Bansak (Reddin g,
Conn .) qualified for the regional competition just
a week later at the Bridgewater Invitati onal.
Haywood won the intem1ediate tlat, while
Bansak was fifth in the novice fences. Senior

Brynne Archer (Richmond. Va.) posted the
Generals final win of the season when she took
first in the novice fences at the University of
Virginia Invitational in late March.
Three riders ended up participating in the
region championships on March 30 at Hollins,
led by George, who was the reserve champion i
the walk-trot. Archer placed third in the novice
tlat, while Bansak placed sixth in the novice
fences.
With their performances at regionals, Georg'
and Bansak both qualified for the zone
competition held April I at Virginia Tech.
George fini shed sixth in the walk-trot and Arch
placed sixth in the novice !lat.
The season ended with a fifth-place finish at
ODACs held April 6 at Sweet Briar College.
Bridgewater took home the hardware in a close
meet , foll owed by RMWC, Hollins, Lynchbur;.
W&L and Sweet Briar.
Individually, Billman, senior Kiltie Tompki
(Ellicott City, Md. ) and freshman Brooks Yard
(Larchmont, N.Y.) were named First Team All
ODAC for their performances at the conferenc
championship meet.

the fi rst 12-win sea>on and hest overall record since the 2000 squad th at went 19-2 and
advanced tn the 'econd round of the NCAA Tou rnament. It wa' abo the first time W&L had
po,ted six conference win s since 200 1.
The Ge neral s demonstrated they were a team to be rec koned with on hoth the conference
and reg ional leve l. Not onl y did the W& L men'' team notch ' ix conference win s and one
draw in 2006. hu t it also played Divi sion I and ne ighboring Virginia Military Inst itute to a

Wa> hington. 1-0. The win over Mary Wa> hington was the li r' t ti me the Ge nerals had
defeated a ranked oppone nt since 2002.
This years ' quad was led by a quintet of upperclassme n. Incl uding seniors J.D. McDe rmott
!Colorado S pri ngs. Colo.). Alex Phi ll ips (Wi ll iamshurg. Va.). Scot Pittman !Charl otte, N.C.)

lynchp in' in the W &L defen ,e that posted a 'chool-record 0.52 goals-against-ave rage.
Pittman earned FiN Team AII -ODAC and All -Reg ion honors thi s season. while
McDermott earned honorah le mention conference honors. Garcia and McCraw received
Second Team AJI -O DAC honors and Dodds was a first team conference honoree a nd also
rece ived second-team all -region accolades ..
Along with the se nior leadership on defe nse, the back-third was also orchestrated by First
Team AII-O DAC and Second Team All -Reg ion ju ni or goalkeeper Ted Sheedy (Pil! sburgh,
Pa). Sheedy manned the net for the Generals in 15 contests thi s season. all ow ing a sc hoolrecord 0 .-19 goals per game and registered a sc hool-record-tying eight shutouts. His career
goals-against average (0.7 1-l l is also a progra m-best.
The Ge nerals defense was not the o nly a'pect of the 2006 campai gn that found its way into
the spotlight. Leading the W &L offe nse was j uni or forward Jac k Palmer (Wi ll iamsburg, Va. ).
Dodd s. sophomore Whi tt Larkin !Alexandri a, Va.) and freshman Drew Crow ley (Weston.
Mass.). A ll four players notched double-digits points. Jed by Palmer who scored a tea m-hi gh
eight goals and also added an ass ist. Palmer is currentl y tied for I Oth in program hi story wi th
career goals (23 ) and th ird in caree r game-winni ng goals ( 10).
Dodds found the back of the net fi ve times and contributed three assists for 13 points and
ab o had a team-be't four game- winning goals. whi le Larkin (-lg. 3a) and Crowley (-lg, 3a)

The 2007 Wash ington and Lee men's tennis season
a bit surprising -- not from a standpoint of
destination -- blll rather of the journey to get there.
Expectations were mixed as the season approached
due to the graduation of several top players. However.
Head Coach David Detwiler remarked early on that he
thought there was a special chemistry on this team. It
was that intangible component that helped a young
ro,ter achieve the norn1al expectations. which included
the programs 12th-straight ODAC title and seventhstraight NCAA Tournament berth. What was not
expe~ted was that the Generals set a new sc hool record
for wins in a season. going 20-3 overall and breaking
the former mark of IS wins set in 1975.
The season began with a 9-0 victory over Emory &
Henry on Feb. IS and a 7-0 lo~s at Division I Furman
on Feb. 21. That loss wa~ the last time W &L would
taste defeat for II matches and 30 days. The win
streak began with a 6-3 victory over regional-power
Sewanee, included wins over six ODAC opponents and
a non-conference win over 17th-ranked Denison (5-4).
It came to an end with a narrow 5-4 loss to ninth ranked Mary Washington on l\Iar. 24.
The Generals didnt take long to regroup, downing
Rhodes (6-3), Christopher Newport (9-0) and
Swarthmore (5-4) the next weekend en rou te to an
eigh t-match win streak that saw the Generals breeze
through the ODAC Tournament for their 12th-straight
ODACtitle.
As the :"JCAA Tournament field was ann ounced,
wa~

\\' &L was rewarded for its outstanding season with
first-round bye. The second round featured a match
with 13th-ranked Johns Hopkins, who ended the
Generals season with a 5-1 win.
Disappointing as the loss to Hopkins was, a look
back at the team's accomplishments proved that it w
a special season.
Detwiler was named th e ODAC Coach of the Ye.
for the third time in hi s seven seasons as head coach
He was also named the IT A Atlantic South Region
Coach of the Year and eclipsed the I 00-win plateau
during the course of the season (I 06-41, .72 I ).
Senior Jon Malooly (Baltimore, Md.), juniors Tir
Ross (Malvern. Pa.). Nat Estes (Charleston, S.C.). S·
Feibelman (Richmond, Va.) and Nelson Bunn
(Raleig h, N.C.), and sophomore Jamie McCardell
(Corn wall, Vt.) all earned First Team All-ODAC
honors in singles. while Ross and Estes garnered Fir
Team All-ODAC laurels in doubles. The tandem of
Malooly and McCardell were named Second Team
All-ODAC. Ross went 14- 11 at No. I singles, Estes
went 15-6 at No. 2, Malooly went 17-2 at No.3.
Feibelman was 19-5 at No.4. l\kCardell was 17-10
No. 5 and Bunn posted a 13-6 mark at No. 6 singles
Ross and Estes registered an 11-6 mark in doubles,
while Malooly and McCardell went 15-5 overall.
With just Malooly graduating next season,
expectations should remain high for the Washingto
and Lee mens tennis program as it continues to stri\
for excellence on the national level.

With the success of the winter 'eason on their
resumes. both the men's and women's squad have a
number of outstanding ex periences and performances
to transfer to the spring season.

Track is special because progress can be measured in time. distance. or
height. In few other activities can individual or team improvement be so
readily visible. · Matthew Harrison. Junior

Coming off a strong indoor season. the Wa, hington and Lee outdoor trac k and fi eld team was poised to
compete with the upper ec helon of the ODAC. The women's season was highlighted by a second-place fini;h at
the ODAC Championship meet, several broken school records and an NCAA Qualifier, while the men's
campaign also featured a host of strong performances and two 'napped program marks. Additionally, both
teams expanded their range of events. adding the steeplec hase and the heptathlon. Sophomore Becca Taylor
(Hamilton, Ohio) set a school record by being th e firs t W &L female athl ete to ever compete in the steeplechase
( 12:25.75) at th e Coastal Carolina In vitatio nal. Sophomores Stacy Doornbos (Roswell . Ga.) and Tara

th e championship mee t. Webb was also named ODAC Womens Track Scholar-Athlete of the Year.
Joining W ebb to earn First Team All-ODAC honors was sophomore Alysen Kuck (Staten Island, N. Y.).
who p laced first in both the hi gh jump (52.0) and the javelin with a winning toss of 10911.5. Junior Li z
Brandl er (Camp Hill, Pa.), Taylor and Doornbos each nabbed Second Team All-ODAC accolades for their

sophomore Chip McCoy (Litchfield, Conn.), who fini shed finished third in the -100 meter hurdle s (58.89) and
Wilson. who was fourth in the shot put (-13-1.25).
While the ODAC Ou tdoor Championships often signals the end of the seaso n, the Generals were still active
as Doornbos was preparing for the NCAAs in the heptathlon. She made hi story by being the first General to
co mpete at the champiomhip meet since 1996.
At the NCAAs. Doornbos placed 14th in the heptathlon with the second -hi ghest point total of her career
(-1.329). During th e co mpetition, she broke her own school-record in the 200 meter dash with a time of 25.6 1
and also managed a personal-best in the I 00 meter hurdl es with a time of 15.77.
Doornbos set a new standard for the track program with her petformance at NCAAs, and with the majority
of the hoth squad s returnin g in 2007-08, the Generals wi ll continue to vie for the top spots in the league.

W&L posted a 29-8 overall record and continued tb dom tnance of the Old Dom inion
Athlettc Confere nce. po,ting an unblemt,hed conference record ( 10-0) for the 'i~th-straigh t
'ea>on. Add itiona ll y. the Generals won thetr sixth-consecutive conference tournament
champiomhi p and we nt to the NCAA Tournament for the ' ixth season in a row. All of
those accompli>hments were noth ing new to a program that has posted a I ~6-38 (.~30)
overa ll record over th at six-sea,on ' tretch. What was impre"ive i' that the youthful
Generab advanced deeper in the NCAA Tournament than ever before.
Snyder' unea'y fee ling about his team's leadership and experience was swift ly quelled
whe n the Ge neral> won the sea,on-opening W& L Inv itational wi th a 4-0 record. A trio of
ODAC win s sandwiched arou nd a loss to perennial NCAA Tou rnament participant
Chri stopher Newport had W &L 'porttng a 7- 1 record entering the Emory Uni ver,ity
Invitational on Sept. 22-23.
The win s kept W& L in the drivers seat for the ODAC title and pushed the regu lar season
ODAC winning streak to 56-straight matches.
A win ove r Randolph -I\ lacon also sparked another winmng w eak for W & L. which won
its next eight conte,ts to improve to 17-4 overall and 7-0 in the confe rence heading into
another tough tournament at Southwestern Uni ve rsity on Oct. 13- 14 .
W&L hegan the ODAC tournament with a 3-0 win over Randolph-Macon Womans and
conti nued to roll with 3-0 win s over Virgini a Wesleyan (se mifinal s) and Randolph-Macon
(fi nal) to advance to the NCAA Tournament.
The momentum from the ODAC Tournament carried ove r to the NCAA Tournament
where the Generals made a statement that the program was now a force to be rec koned with .
W &L had won NCAA Tournament matches in the past, hut had neve r advanced past the
second round. That all changed in 2006 as the Generals began the tourney with a 3- 1
victory ove r Vassar in the first round. That se t up a match with top-seeded and 16th-ranked
NYU in the second round. W&L played the Violets to a heart-pounding fi ve-game match,
eventu all y winning by scores of 25-30, 30-28. 30-19. 29-3 1, 15- 13 and advan cing to the
Sweet 16. W& L ran into a tough Stevens Tech squad pl ay ing in their own are na fo r the
regional champion, hip and fell one ga me short of making the national champiomhips held
in Salem, Va.
Seni or Lauren Edmonson (Crystal Lake, Ill. ) prov ided the Generals with the leadership
they nee ded all sea, on and fini shed the year with a school record 662 digs. A First Team
AII -ODAC and Honorable Menti on All -A merica pick, Edmonson fi nished her caree r ranked
third all -time at W &Lin digs ( I ,53 2 ) and service aces (204 ).

The highlight of thi s season was when we beat Ursunus and

This year has been a great year where we really matured as a

pulled together and beat such rivals as Muhlenberg and Ursin us
for the first tiem. Despite losing our captain Max Courtney. I am
extremely optimi stic and excited to see what next year brings. Anthony Boniello, Junior
We had an incredible dual season and showked many coaches and
teams throughout the Centennial Conference. Our program has
come a long way in the past three years. We didn't li ve up to they
expectations that we had earned during the regular season in the
conference tournament. but next year, we are looki ng to have
another great regular sesason and ride that momentum into the

Out of all the things that make Was hington and Lee a
unique and spec ial in stitution. the prese nce of a vibrant
and active Gree k community ranks near the top of the list.
From the very begi nning of ori entation week freshmen are
introduced to the system that will typically dominate a
significant amount of their time at W&L. Men and
women al ike are quickl y swept up in the acti vity of fall
infonnal rec ruitment as fri endships are formed and
freshmen begin to wonder which house they will call
home come January . As undergraduates return from
Ch ri stmas break. the start of winter tenn classes takes a
backseat in priority to formal recruitment. and fraternities
and sororiti es end the week with wonderful new pledge
classes to celebrate with.
Aside from the barrage of activity associated with
formal and informal recruitment. Greeks on campus found
many other ways to stay involved and busy. Aside from
soc ial eve nts. all greek houses worked tireless ly for
vari ous philanth ropies that benefited W&L and the
surrounding community. All the se activitie s helped make
Greek life a vital aspect of the W &L experience.

The Zeta Iota Chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta had yet another great year. President Kelly Price completed her
te rm, pass ing the title on to Elizabeth Williams, who will lead the chapter through 2007. As the new officers
take over, we are all very excited about the upcoming year. With a great new pledge class and new goals,
Thetas future looks very bright!
Along with hosting many philanthropic events for our national philanthropy CASA (Court Appointed Special
Advocates), such as the SK run with Sigma Chi and the Pancake breakfast with Phi Psi, Thetas are also very
involved around campus. The sorority has many team captains, heads of volunteer organizations, and members
of student activities boards. Programs such as the Freshman Orientation Committee, Nabors Service League,
Peer Counse lors , and Fancy Dress Committee also include Theta leadership.
Thetas enjoyed many social festivities this year as well. With events like Twin Stars, the Super Hero party,
90s themed party, and many more, Thetas enjoyed being together and having fun. With the addition of the 2007
pledge class, and many exciting events to look forward to, it looks to be an exhilarating year for the sorority.
T he class of 06 has been such an important part in out sororitys growth and success, and they will all be greatly
missed. Good luck class of 06, you will be remembered by all!

the fall of 2003. it was imposs ible to predit a ll th at their
fo ur years wo uld hold . From ho urs studying in Leyburn ,
to riding down the streets of Lex ington in a float for
Mock Convention, to dancing th e ni ght away at th e IOOth
Fancy Dress. their college years were filled with
experiences that could only be found at Washington and
Lee. Whether members of the class were children of
alumni who applied early deci sion or students who
decided to attend W &Lon a whim, all found security in a
co mmunity bound by honor and tradition . The following
pages se rve as a tribute to the class of 2007, celebrating
their past four years, as we ll as the childhood life that led
them to Lexi ngton. Enjoy.

Congratulations Huntley!
"A hove all, do not fret about
being true to yourself, for that way
lies self-centerdness and despair.
Rather take joy in the gifts of mind
and heart with which you are endowed,
be true to others, and look beyond yourself
for the love and faith you will need to
sustain you."
