Senior Reflection: "I am so grateful for having the opportunity to attend a great school, and be a part of such a special hockey program. I am fortunate to have met a number of great people while at RPI, but what has really made my time special here has been the time spent with all of my teammates, on and off the ice. Special thanks to Tracey Dame for being not just a great boss, but for always being there to help with any problems I have had the past four years. Whether it was something with school, hockey, or life she was always willing to listen and help in any way she could." - March 2015
