Support CGA Women's Rugby TODAY!

For 150 years, Coast Guard Athletics has enhanced leadership development at the Academy. Today, that legacy is stronger than ever thanks to more than $10 million in support provided through the Alumni Association in the past decade.

Pictured here, circa 2018, when he was a much younger man - although he has not changed much - this handsome Scottish fella had a birthday last week*.

EIGHT - OH...

Thanks for all you've done for CGA Rugby - and CGA - over the years, Coach John!

Did you know that there's a FRC named for him? Well, maybe not exactly named for him, but it has his name.

*Those responsible for missing his birthday will be sacked.

A few old lady rugger-engineers met up in New London recently. One is part of ‘16’s Magnificent 7, the other two are ‘18, an equally remarkable group (almost…) but lacking a cool name (“Hvozzy’s People,” maybe? 🤔😉). Two are Academy instructors, the other is a sort of At-Large Civil. All three did their part to lift the program to national prominence. Theirs are the shoulders that others now stand on… ❤️🏉

P.S. This group has at least 10 years of sea time between them. 🌊

[We forgot about '22 promoting to LT back in May. Those responsible have been sacked. If other '22ers would like to send us their promotion pictures, we'd be happy to post.]

At her promotion ceremony, Summer, an engineer at SFLC Alameda, was joined by her Mom & Dad, Annie & Dan, who made the trip west from Queens (even now, 4+ years after her graduation, it's not at all unusual to see them at Stonington). On the left is one of two Coasties who play rugby professionally. Know who she is? On the right is Katherine, a soccer player. Why we didn't steal her is not clear😉. Both are classmates - and also newly-minted LT's.

Congratulations, LT Gould. We are very proud of you!

When you wear your CG Rugby swag, you make connections. That's what happened a few days ago during EAGLE's port call in CHS. Pictured are Andrew, '16, a winger, and Lydia, '29, also a dweller in the backfield. Andrew is the EO on JAMES, and although we prefer our naval - and aeronautical - engineers to be forwards, we suppose he'll do... We will note, with no bias whatsoever, that the '16 women were a far more accomplished group on the pitch than their brethren. 😉🏉

[Veterans Memorial Stadium, Quincy, MA, June 7]

Two CGAWR alumni are playing rugby professionally...

Chances are very good - virtually certain - that they will be teammates on future CG teams, but for now, Ari, '22 and Kate, '26 are adversaries. Kate's WER side, the Boston Banshees hosted Ari's Bay (Area) Breakers. The visitors prevailed 40-25. Coach Sarah and her wife Julie, who are Banshee season ticket holders, were there.

(When last we checked, Ari remains in Alameda where she started her career on a WMSL. If she hasn't already reported, Kate will soon be aboard a FRC homeported in Boston.)
