Olympia (Rensselaer Athletics Student-Athlete Honor Society): “Lauren possesses a great basketball mind, the ability to read and act in the moment, great court vision and the willingness and ability to thread the needle to put the ball in her teammates’ hands. She demonstrated commitment to the pursuit of excellence for herself and her teammates, pushing through multiple injuries. A two-year captain, Lauren is a very intelligent and analytical person whose self-deprecating humor puts others at ease while her simmering spirit and passion to pursue excellence inspires, challenges, and motivates others to do the same.” - Head women’s basketball coach, John Greene
