Thanks to Clarkstown South coach Jordan Turner for sending this my way about South’s recent alumni game…
“StartFragment->About six months ago a former player and I, Eileen O’Neil (South ‘06) met to discuss how we could build up an alumni group for Clarkstown South field hockey. We figured we should start small and so a facebook page was started. Then, about two month ago, a couple of players started talking about putting together an alumni game and Lauren Silva (South ‘06) said she would organize it for the Saturday after Thanksgiving. By simply putting the event up on the facebook page a buzz started and people started to sign up. As the word spread we added more and eventually about forty alumni signed up. Additionally there were about 20 or 30 families in the stands who came to relive their time cheering for South. After the game most of the players headed over to Lexington grill to continue to socialize and catch up with old friends. Before the day was half over many players were talking about what to add to the event next year and which other alums they want to reach out to.” - Jordan Turner, Clarkstown South head coach
