So sadly, the Gusties didn't get the crown this year, but they were fortunate enough to get to host the Frozen Four. Something a lot of us alumni would have loved to do. I just read the final score of today's third place game and Gustavus lost to Elmira, taking fourth. Obviously it's a bummer for all those involved in the program, but hopefully they can take some pride in knowing that they were one of only four teams left standing this weekend and that in and of itself is quite the accomplishment.
It as also wonderful that Gustavus got to host because it created a great reason for many of us alumni to get together and catch up with one another. Here is a shot of all (except one, Sarah Moe who conveniently missed this photo op..hmm) the ladies who were there cheering.
Top Row (L to R): Sarah Windhorst, Jenny Pusch, Marge Dorer, Kiersten Supina, Keller Crandall, Ellen 'Doyle' Van Patten, Nicole 'Guimond' Van PattenBotton Row (L to R): Abby 'Randall' Reilly (me!), Christine Wicker, Laura Vannelli, Laura Hillman, Molly Doyle, Katie 'Deschneau' Melde
This also gave me an opportunity to visit Mankato State University with my younger sister Ashley. She is going to go there next fall and we got to do the tour together which was a lot of fun. Not to confuse people, but here we are in front of the Gustavus sign. Originally the plan was to take a picture of Keller in front of this sign, however, as we pulled up, he decided to nap and I felt bad waking him up..
