Philly women will compete as @Philly_Fire meets Brown in scrimmage today

February 2, 2019 by Chris Goldberg

From Press Release

A WPLL Select Team – featuring 2018 WPLL Champion Bridget Bianco (Moorestown, Northwestern) and Philadelphia Fire’s Katrina Geiger (Haverford High, Loyola) – will face off against Brown University’s women’s lacrosse team today in Rhode Island.

The game, which will be played at Brown’s Stevenson-Pincince Field at 1:00pm ET, will use WPLL rules. Saturday’s game is open to the public and marks the first time that the WPLL will scrimmage against a college team.

Brown’s squad features several key Philly grads, including defenders Emily Fryer (Agnes Irwin, junior, 36 ground balls in 2018) and Allison Lanzone (Radnor, 20 ground balls, 11 caused turnovers in 2018),

“One of our goals as an organization is to give today’s top players the opportunity to continue playing the game at the highest level,” explained WPLL Commissioner Jen Adams. “By facing off against Brown on Saturday we are providing our players with another opportunity to continue playing lacrosse while also exposing Brown’s players to the WPLL brand of lacrosse.”

Liz Robertshaw (Strath Haven) will serve as the Head Coach of the WPLL Select Team. Robertshaw, who served as Assistant Coach at Brown from 2000-2003, is a 2x World Cup championship-winning coach with Team USA (2013, 2017).

Geiger is a recent Loyola grad who was drafted by the Fire in the Fall.

The WPLL is excited about the opportunity to play against Brown and hopes that this will be the first of many scrimmages against college programs. If you are interested in playing against the WPLL, please contact Caitlin@prowomenslax.com.
