Catholic University
Connect with every college coach in the country and commit to your dream school!
Overview
This is the Catholic University (District Of Columbia) Lacrosse scholarship and program information page.
Here you can explore important information about Catholic University Lacrosse. This information is very valuable for all high school student-athletes to understand as they start the recruiting process. Catholic University is located in Washington, DC and the Lacrosse program competes in the Landmark Conference conference.
Catholic University does not offer athletic scholarships for Lacrosse. Need-based and academic scholarships are available for student-athletes.

If you are interested in getting recruited by Catholic University Lacrosse, you should get to know more about the school, what academic programs are offered, and important members of the coaching staff – these are the people you need to connect with. Getting familiar with the Lacrosse program is an important first step in the recruiting process.
How to get recruited by Catholic University Lacrosse
Most college Lacrosse coaches don’t respond to unsolicited emails.
It’s important you build a relationship with the coaching staff. This is one of the ways SportsRecruits can help. You can certainly start by filling out the Catholic University Lacrosse’s recruiting questionnaire and getting on their list, but that’s only the start. To get actively recruited, a college coach needs to see you compete, which is why it’s important to have an online athletic recruiting profile. High school student-athletes have a discoverability problem. And discoverability is the key to college exposure and recruitment. Just having a recruiting profile doesn’t guarantee you will get recruited. You need your profile to showcase all of your academic and athletic achievements, and be able to instantly connect to college coaches who are interested. If you can’t quickly find and message any college coach you want, then you’re not solving your biggest problem in getting recruited for Lacrosse. The Head Coach of Catholic University Lacrosse is Meghan McDonogh – make it as easy as possible for them to learn about you as an athlete, and be able to start a conversation with you.
100% of college coaches and programs are on the SportsRecruits platform. If you are interested in getting recruited by Catholic University’s Lacrosse program, start your free recruiting profile with SportsRecruits today.

How a rugby player saved the White House from terrorists.
Heroes of September 11 from the world of sport The tragedy claimed the lives of about 3,000 people. Eminent athletes were also among the victims – about this in the material “RBC Sport”
Photo: Robert Giroux/Getty Images
Man in red bandana
Former Boston University lacrosse team player Welles Crowther, who worked as a broker for Sandler O’Neil and Partner, was on the 104th floor of the South Tower at the time of the attack. Immediately after the plane crashed into the building, Crowther went down to the 78th floor lobby, where he met a group of survivors. He picked up the young woman and led the group to the only working staircase, escorted them to the 61st floor and headed back. By the time he got back to the 78th floor, he had wrapped a bandana around his face to protect himself from the smoke.
Crowther managed to get 18 people out of the tower. He was last seen with New York firefighters before the building collapsed. Crowther’s body was found in March 2002.
adv.rbc.ru
In 2006, while performing at the 2006 Winter Olympics, Crowther’s friend Tyler Jewell wore a red bandanna in his honor. Crowther’s story was the basis for the documentary The Man in the Red Bandana.
Rugby against terrorists
Another heroic act during the attack was made by Mark Bingham, a former San Francisco rugby player for The Fog. On September 11, Bingham was on United Airlines Flight 98. After the terrorists hijacked the plane, Bingham and other passengers tried to stop the hijackers from crashing into a building in Washington, presumably either the Capitol or the White House. As a result of the fight between terrorists and a group led by Bingham, the plane crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
In 2002, the Mark Kendall Bingham Rugby Memorial Cup for Gays was organized in honor of the former athlete – for many years, Bingham, who did not hide his orientation, helped create rugby clubs with gay participation around the world.
Stanley Cup Winner
One of the passengers on United Airlines Flight 175 that crashed into the South Tower of the World Trade Center was a former hockey player, 31-year-old Mark Bevis. Bevis started playing hockey at Boston University, and later played in the AHL (the second league in North America) for the Providence Bruins and the Fredericton Canadiens. After retiring, he worked as a scout for the Los Angeles Kings for several years – on September 11, he was just flying to Los Angeles for the Kings organizational meetings.
After Bevis’ death, his family started the Leadership Fund, which helps students get scholarships to colleges and universities.
“Mark has dedicated most of his life to developing young people, encouraging them to follow their dreams. He coached boys and girls in hockey, the game he loved, but more importantly, he was their role model, mentor and friend.
Stanley Cup winner Garnet Bailey flew to Los Angeles with Bevis. He played for the Boston Bruins, Washington Capitals, Detroit Red Wings, and St.
Louis Blues, and later became director of scouting for the Los Angeles Kings.
After Bailey’s death, his family established a foundation that raises funds for hospitalized children, infants and their families. The club, 10 years after the tragedy, named a new mascot in honor of Bailey.
In 2012, after winning the Stanley Cup, the Kings took the trophy to the National 9/11 Memorial in New York City, placed it on a panel with the names of Bayley and Bevis, and invited their family members to spend their “Day with the Cup.”
Another victim of the attack was Marie-Rae Sopper. While studying at the university, she received a scholarship for the last three years for her athletic achievements. After university, Sopper worked for the JAG Corps, the legal arm of the US Navy. At the same time, she worked on the coaching staff of the George Washington University Women’s Gymnastics Club team. On September 11, 2001, Sopper was on American Airlines Flight 77, which crashed into the Pentagon.
After Sopper’s death, the University of Iowa, where the athlete studied, established the Marie-Rae Sopper Award for Excellence for gymnasts, and the Marie-Rae Sopper Memorial Gymnastics Foundation was opened at the University of California.
Former athletes were also at the epicenter of the attack.
Dan Trant and Eamon McEnini worked as investment brokers for Cantor Fitzgerald, whose office was in the North Tower of the World Trade Center, where the first plane hijacked by terrorists crashed. Trant was a former basketball player for the Boston Celtics and coached a Catholic high school team after his retirement. His colleague Eamon McEnini played lacrosse while studying at the university. At 1977th he was recognized as the best player in the championship among universities, and a year later he represented the United States in the World Cup. In addition to sports, Makinini was fond of poetry, and after his death, the family, in collaboration with the Cornell University Library, published a collection of Macinini’s poems, Bend in the Road.
