The Seniors Say Goodbye

Amanda Harrington –
Track & Field

“It feels surreal to be graduating. I can’t believe how fast the past four years flew by. Looking back, I’m so thankful I chose St. Rose because of all of the opportunities, friendships and experiences I’ve had. As for track, it was a really hard goodbye.
I’ve been competing for 9 years and I couldn’t help but bawl my eyes out when I crossed the finish line for the final time.
Track has helped shape me into the person I am today and I’m thankful for all of my teammates who made such an impact in my life as well.”

Matt Graham – Men’s Lacrosse

“Throughout my time here at Saint Rose with the lacrosse program, I was able to meet such great people and play with some incredible athletes. The growth that this program has seen since my freshman year is just a testament to the type of men we have on our team. Closing my career with the type of season we had and brotherhood of this team is something that I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life.”

Jack Jones –
Men’s Basketball

“Saint Rose was somewhere I was able to succeed both on and off the court. I was fortunate to go to back to back NCAA tournaments and the bonds I’ve made with my teammates are something I’ll never forget. And a big thank you to all the Saint Rose community who supported me in any way, it’s very much appreciated.”

“I’ve had a great time during my golf career at Saint Rose. Over my three years here I had a bunch of great memories playing on the team. From traveling down to West Virginia for NCAA’s last year, to the one day tournament in Rhode Island my freshman year, I will be able to look back and be able to appreciate the time I spent as a member of the golf team. I and saddened because I am departing the team a year early, due to the fact I know I am cutting myself short of further fond memories to be made as a saint rose athlete. This year has been a rollercoaster ride from us just missing NCAAs as a team, and myself just missing NCAAs as an individual.”

“It was a great four years playing golf for The College of Saint Rose. The highlight by far was my junior year when we made it to the NCAA Tournament in West Virginia. This was a great experience playing golf here and I wouldn’t have wanted to do it anywhere else. Though we would have liked to make it back to NCAA’s this year we fought hard and still had a successful season.I would like to thank my coach Scott Warren for the opportunity he gave me four years ago.”

Jessica McMillen – Women’s Swimming & Diving

“I will always cherish my time at Saint Rose. I have gained a valuable education and had the opportunity to swim at the NCAA Division II level all four years. I have gained lifelong friendships, traveled to Puerto Rico for training trips and have been a part of record breaking relay teams. Thank you to St. Rose for the memories and Go Golden Knights!”

Julian Lipinski –
Men’s Basketball

“Being a student-athlete for Saint Rose has been a great privilege. I’ve absolutely loved being part of the Men’s Basketball program, especially going to back-to-back NCAA tournaments the last two years. I will never forget the feeling of the Saint Rose home crowd erupting when the ball goes through the net. Off the court, the school has provided a lot of opportunities for me and I’ve done my best to maximize them. Wherever my career takes me, I will always be proud to represent Saint Rose. It will always be my home away from home.”
