of 2006, this book is herebJJ dedicated to:

The Honor System is one aspect of this university that is truly unique. While many universities boast honor systemE
W&L's is a way of life, rather than a set of rules. The entirely student run system not only ensures that students wil
not lie, cheat, or steal, it also discourages any behavior that could be considered dishonorable. From the famou
freshman orientation honor speech to life as an alum, the honor system makes us proud to be W&L students.

Tiinill_g 1fall, g1f~, and Co-op

The Class of 2006 has been privileged to dine in many on-campus establishments during the course of their colleg•:
careers, and it is certain that the original institutions are the ones most cherished. The Class of '06 was the last in;!
long line of students to dine in the establishments that have been the setting for student dining for decades. The:

cordon bleu will forever haunt the Class of 2006, thoughts of the d-hall will always bring fond memories of fresh!
men year bonding. The GHQ and old co-op were also popular hangouts, providing students with the opportunit:
to escape the monotony of the d-hall for a quick meal or to meet their friends in crowded booths to grab a snad
Although the new co-op (Cafe '77) is bigger, features more variety, and has more seating, nothing can replace thl
memories every member of the Class of '06 has in the original. This dedication proves what an influence these ol<

Dedication

Pr€sid€nt's W €SS@€
The class of 2006 will always have a special place in my
memories of Washington and Lee. First, I had the privilege
of teaching and advising m any of you . I have observed your
inquiring minds and your intellec tua l growth. And then, as
Acting President, I became acquainted with many more of
ou and with additional aspects of your lives. I have admired
our skills on the athletic fi elds, worked w ith you as ca mpu s
leaders, and talked with you informally at Lee House d in-

It may seem that you have lived throu gh grea t changes
t Washington and Lee. You did know student life w ithout
and with the Elrod Commons and live through a furious
debate about our academic calendar. But you r entire li ves
have been characterized by even more dramatic change. After
all, you were born at about the same time that the Macintosh
computer arrived on the scene. You are the first W&L class
to complete your entire college education in the post-9 / 11
world. You have embraced many changes and adjusted to others.

Still, you don't allow valuable traditions to fad e away. Because of you, Washington and Lee will
alwa ys have a Co-op snack bar. More important, you have sustained the honor and spea king traditions, and
you have flouri shed in small classes under the intense scrutiny of teaching-oriented fac ulty. You have celebrated coeducation and expanded service to the community. You ha ve helped to mainta in and strengthen
what is special about Washington and Lee.
We are indebted to you, but you are also indebted to many persons w ho have granted you the gift of
an excellent education: parents, benefactors, teachers, and staff members who maintain the safety and the
beauty of our campus and prepare and serve the food we eat. You can remit this d ebt by serving socie ty in
your work and civic contributions and by helping Washington and Lee educa te your successors here.
We look forw ard to taking pride in your many achi evements. Remember us and come back to see us
from time to time.

Campus Life

Campus fif€
While our main purpose in coming to W&L
is to gain the credits required for a degree,
it is the relationships we develop over our
years here that make the experience memorable. Whetherit'smeetingnew friends over
orientation week, bonding over ridiculous
and creative Halloween costumes, or enjoying a Parents Weekend unlike any other
university, the social aspects of W&L are
one thing that makes it incredibly unique.
Often students chose to expand their experience off the boundaries of this campus,
and spend a term studying abroad. Spring
Term, Alumni Weekend, and Homecoming
were other functions that allowed us to celebrate and strengthen friendships formed
with the aid of this unique institution. The
'Work hard, play hard' motto helped us
make the most of our four years.

festivities celebrated change as
well. Homecoming 2005 marked
the kickoff a yearlong celebration
of women on campus in honor of
the 20th anniversary of coeducation. The inductees to the athletic
hall of fame were also celebrated
over the weekend, and a special
alumni baseball game was held.
The weekend provided time for
further reflection on the university's ever evolving legacy, with
special events for both Five Star
Generals (alumni who graduated
more than 50 years ago) and the
Young Alumni (members of the

Ahhhh .. .Spring Term. W &L
students spend the last six weeks
of school taking only two classes,
leaving them with a lotoffree time.
Weekend road trips to Foxfields,
Virginia Beach, and even N ASCAR
events are not uncommon.
But there is still a lot to do at
school. Fraternity and sorority
formals take charge of the nightlife
duringSpringTerm. Day-long tubing trips down the Maury River are
something that every one should
partake in before they graduate.
Students can participate in a variety of activities, such as Derby
Days and the Buffalo Creek Music

Festival. This spring also marked
the start of a new tradition in the
performing arts. With the help of
a new endowment by Robert and
Elizabeth Bentley, actors and singers will have the opportunity to
perform in a musical every spring
term. Or students can support their
fellow classmates on sports teams,
who dominated once again this
spring with four ODAC championships.
Spring Term is just a great way
for everyone to relax after a year
of hard work, and a great way for
seniors to say good-bye to Washington and Lee.

Whether they were an early decision legacy
ora student who applied to W&Lona w him
and deci ded to go, all freshmen of the class
of 2009 faced unfamiliar territory w hen
they arrived in the BOG quad for orientation week. Despite varying backgrounds,
interests, and even nationalities, freshmen
quickly bega n to bond over the traditional
orientation week activities, such as the
Honor System speech in Lee Chapel and
the first dinner with their major advisors.
Throughout the course of the yea r, freshmen w ere exposed to the m any things that
make the W &L experience specia l, such as
Homecoming, Parents Weekend, Christmas
Weekend, Recruitment, Fancy Dress, and
Spring Term. As the Class of 2009 enjoyed
these 'firsts' of their college careers, their
experiences allowed them to look forward

to the remainder of their time at W&L.

Sophomor€s
Although the year is often labeled the 'sophomore
slump/ sophomores on campus worked to stay involved
and take advantage of the opportunities W&L has to
offer. Students were still required to live on campus,
but this year they had the luxury of choosing their own
accommodations. Some chose to live in apartment s tyle
housing with a small, close group of friends in Gaines or
Woods Creek. Others chose to full y embrace the greek
lifestyle and live with their pledge classes in a fraternity
or sorority house. Sophomore year also gave greek students their first opportunity to experience rush from the
'other side.' Academically, the year provided a balance
between working on general education requirements
and beginning to take courses toward a major. Although
sophomores were required to declare their major by
the end of the year, it remained common for students
to switch several times in pursuit of the best course of
study. These opportunities allowed sophomores to enjoy
and make the most of the year before they approached
their upperclassmen years and were forced to think more
seriously about their futures.

~uniors
Junior year provided students with an
opportunity to enjoy W&L to the fullest.
Finally able to reside in off campus housing, juniors savored the opportunity to
assert even more independence. Well into
the courses for their majors, juniors had the
chance to stud y things they enjoyed, without worrying about the real world pressures
of finding a job or applying to grad uate
school. Often students used part of the year
to study abroad and gai n new perspectives.
Others sought to stay on campus and get
involved with clubs or find internships that
wo uld help them develop their interests.
Friendships were strengthened and new
bonds were made, all in eager anticipation
of when they would finally be seniors.

The merits of a W&L education are numerous, but by far, students almost unanmiously agree that one of the biggest appeals
of the university is the quality of the faculty. Whether they are designing a new and
interesting spring term course or inviting
students into their homes for dinner, W&L
professors are constantly going out of their
way to ensure that students receive a challenging and quality liberal arts education
during their four years. Students have the
opportunity to take study abroad trips with
faculty members or engage in research. It is
because of the dedication of the faculty that
students learn lessons that last well beyond
the final exam.

Or:ganiJations
College is all about meeting new people
and experiencing new things, and many
W&L stud ents chose to broaden their p erspectives by joining an organization . The
presence of over 100 student run organizations on campus allowed anyone to find
something that interes ted them . Service
organiza tions such as Nabo rs, Habitat for
Humanity, and the newly formed Campu s
Kitchens Project allowed students to get
involved with the greater Lexington community. Cultural organi zations such as SAIL
and MSA gave students the opportunity to
learn from their p eers w ho caine from foreign countries. Political organizations such
as College Republicans and Young Democrats worked to exp ose and promote different viewp oints. No matter w hat their
purpose, all student organizations helped
enrich the W&L experience.

Th€ f1rts
Construction has been underway this
year for the new music and arts building,
Wilson Hall, which will soon replace duPont
Hall. The building is scheduled to open for
classes in the fall of 2006. The building will
provide new state of the art facilities for music
and art majors and open up new opportunities for participation and learning in the arts.
South America was the hot spot for
tours this year. The University Wind Ensemble
traveled to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil over spring
break, and the University Chamber Singers
toured Argentina and Uruguay. Meanwhile,
W &L hosted its first a cappella festival in over
20 years.
Perhaps most exciting was the joint
production by the music and theater departments, Gilbert and Sullivan's Tlze Pirates of

Pmzauce, held during spring term. Robert 0.
and Elizabeth M. Bentley provided the school
with an endowment for an annual musical,
and Pirates was the very first production to be
held as a result of this endowment.

"This yea r was somewhat of a letdown after the surprising run we made in the 2005 campaign. Although the team struggled at certain points during the season, there were many
highlights as well . Whether it be coming back in the bottom of the last inning with two
home runs to beat Randolph Macon and the ODAC pitcher of the year, or making another run at the ODAC tournament, the team accomplished many of our preseason goals.
As a captain and graduating senior, see ing this team come together as players and friends
was very rewarding. Next years team looks to be one of the best in the programs history
as they only lose three players. James Madden, David Miller, and Terrence McKelvey
a ll had grea t years and will be returning for 2007 to guide the offense. These offensive
juggernauts, coupled with a more experienced, motivated pitching staff led by Clayton
Edwards will surely guide the Generals back to the ODAC tournament next year."

hen speaking about his team d uring the preseason, Washington and Lee
Head Men's Basketball Coach Adam Hutchinson said that he could see
his team building for the future, but that the improvement may not show
in terms of wins and losses. While the Generals did gradua te from two
wins a yea r ago to fo ur w ins (4-1 9 overall ) during the 2005-06 season,
the true measure of imp rovement was not evident to the casual obsen 'er.
However, those that saw W&L play could tell that there was significant
imp rovement.
The difference was that the Generals were competitive wi th
even the best teams in the league. Though a 4-14 conference mark may
not point toward that claim, consider that W&L fell
in seven games that were decided by seven points
or less. One of the main reasons for the close losses
was the team 's youth, while an injury to one of the
team 's top players also didn't help. The Generals
roster boasted no seniors, just three juniors, four
sophomores and seven freshmen. Regardless, W&L
showed its competitive fi re right fro m the start as
the Generals began the season by hosting a tournament with some stiff competition. Their winning
stretch included wins over Lynchburg (78-71) and
Eastern Mennonite (91-68), and a 75-74 1oss at Guilfo rd in the season finale.
Bienemann was recogni zed as an Honorable Mention Ali-ODAC selection after leading
the tea m in scoring and rebounding. Halkitis was

Isaiah Goodman. Mumper and Goodman both

mior Center Jessica Hunsinger dribbles

Coming off a school-record tying 13 wins and its second straight trip to the ODAC Tournament in 2004-05, the 2005-06
Washington and Lee women 's basketball team returned four starters and was poised for a brea kout seaso n.
Despite thls fact, the Genera ls' tough early season schedule put them in a hole that would prove tou gh to climb out
of. Eventually, W&L found its winning ways and finished with an 11-15 overall mark and an 8- 12 record in the ODAC. The
Generals qualified for the ODAC Tournament once aga in, but found themselves overmatched aga in by facing the tournament's
top seeded team in Randolph-M acon. As disappointing as the loss was, there would be plenty for the Generals to savor from
the season.
The season began w ith a high point as W&L opened with a win over Swarthmore in the Garnet's season-opening
Invitational. A 67-60 win over SC made for a champi onship matchup with a Mary Wa shington club that finished the regular
season with a 25-1 overall record . The Eagles prevailed 60-53, but the Generals se rved notice that they could play with even the
best of tea ms.
Three days later, the Generals would prove the point aga in by facing the Eagles for a second time. This time, Mary
Washin gton emerged wi th a 61-53 victory in Fredericksburg, Va. A few loses ensul'd but W&L rea lly bega n to right the ship w ith
the record-breaking 89-75 win owr Emory & Henry. Along with setting school record s for points and rebounds, the Generals
also had three players record a double-double for the first ti me in school history. Senior guard Louisa Feve notched 16 points
and a season-high 10 rebounds, Hunsinger added 15 points, 15 rebounds and a game-high seven blocks, while freshm an forward Kara Nadeau totaled 13 points and a career-high 14 rebound s. Additionally, sophomore forwa rd Kristen Krouchick tied
her ca ree r-high w ith 26 points.
Following a 69-62 victory at Mary Baldwin, W&L won its third straight game and made school history in a 78-70 win
a t Roanoke. Not only was it the Generals' first-ever win over the Maroons, but Hunsinger became just the six th player in program history to surpass the 1,000 poin t plateau.
With a win in one of its last two conference ga mes, the Generals could have earned the No.6 seed in the ODAC Tournament. W&L traveled to Gui lford where it held a 10-point lead in the second half, before falling 63-56 and then dropped a 94-66
decision at Emory & Henry to close ou t the regular season and ea rn the No.8 seed in the conference tournament.
While the Generals' campaign ended in the qua rterfina ls of the ODAC Tournament for the third consecutive yea r, a
handful of players had stellar seasons and despite the gradua tion of Feve, the Genera ls bring back the other four sta rters and
several key reserves. With all of this returning experi ence, W&L sho uld cont in ue its path toward the top of the ODAC.

he W&L men's cross country progra m entered the 2005 campaign w ith an exact picture
of their identity. The Generals returned several of their top runners, including 2004
ODAC and Region Runner of the Year Na than Johnson.
The Generals held Johnson out of the season-opening W &L Invitational, but caught a
glimpse of their depth as sophomore Alex Mahoney, the 2004 ODAC Rookie of the Year,
won the meet. He was followed by freshman Michael Welsh in second place and senior
Andrew Johnson in l Oth place. Johnson quickly regained his old form in his first mee t of
the season, fi nishing fo urth out of 229 runners at the NYU Invita tional. Mahoney was
right on his heels, placing fifth.
By the ti me W&L had arrived at the Vi rginia Division III Championships in early
October, Head Coach John Tucker had an established squad that extended at-leas t se,·en
deep. Johnson won the state championship and led the Generals to the title, but it
was W &L's depth that was most impressive. All told, six runners
earned all-state honors, with Mahoney finishing as the runnerup to Johnson fo r runner of the yea r. Welsh placed fourth and
was followed by Andrew Johnson, sophomore Andrew Friski,
and freshman Alex Jackson.
Two weeks later, the Generals won their second stra ight
ODAC title, fini shing first out of nine teams at the ODAC

and Johnson claimed his second straigh t ODAC Men's Cross
Country Scholar-A thlete of the Year awa rd.
After a week of training, the Generals set their sights on
the CAA Regional. W &L placed fourth out of 18 teams, led
by Johnson and Mahoney, w ho both earned all-region laurels.
Johnson's finish was good enough to earn him another trip to
na tionals, where he placed 62nd out of 211 runners. With six
of their top eight runners returning, the Genera ls shou ld be
among the favorit es to win the ODAC again next season.

The 2005 Washington and Lee
women's cross country program
en tered the season with a good
many question marks -- most
notably having to replace four
all-conference runners from the
season before.
The transition was made easier
by the return of sophomore Lindsay Erickson after winning the
2004 ODAC Championship and
advancing to th e NCAA nationa ls.
However, the Generals had lost
much of their depth, an important
piece toanywinningcrosscountry
squad.
Two-time ODAC Coach of the
Year Kris Hoey never wavered and
brought in six new runners that
helped her program win a second
s traight ODAC Championship.
W&L's championshipdrivewas

spearheaded by freshman Jackie
Burns, w ho placed first on the
tea m in all six races in which she
competed. She began the se,1son
with a second overall fini sh in the
W&L Invitational and claimed
Virginia Division Ill Rmmer of
the Year honors by w inning the
s ta te championship mee t and
leading the Generals to a s tate
championship finish. Burns kept
the momentum going and later
won the ODAC Championship
meet in being named the ODAC
Rmmer and Rookie of the Year.
Erickson follow ed up her fine
freshman ca mpaign by finis hing second overall at the ODAC
Championships and earning Firs t
Tea m AII-ODAC honors. Freshman Becca Taylo r and se nior
Mary Christopher joined Burns

and Erickson on the First Team
AII-ODAC squad, while junior
Jenny Ratzel ga rnered Second
Team AII-ODAC recognition.
Two weeks later, the Genera ls
were gunning for a bid to the
NCAANa tionaiChampionships
as they competed in the NCAA
South / Southeast Regional held
at Hendrix College. The Generals
produced a fourth place finish out
of22 teams and narrowly missed
a bid to the NCAA Champi onships. Burns, Christopher and
Erickson each earned all-region
honors based up their fini shes.
Burns crossed the fini sh line 11th
w ith a time of 23:06.2. Christopher was 25 th overa ll w ith
a time of 23:39.5 and Erickson
completed the course in 23:39.9,
placing 26th overall.

Entering the 2005 season, W &L
field hockey Head Coach Wendy
Orrison knew that the Generals'
performance at the W&L Turf
Field would be a key to their
success this year.
Her team proved her prophecy
as the Generals boasted a 13-1
home record en route to a 15-6 (71 ODAC) record, the program's
first-ever ODAC Championship
and first-ever appearance in the
NCAA Tournament. The 15 overall victories and seven
ODAC wins were just
two of several school
records the Blue and
White established during the season.
W&Lcameoutofthe

record, but improved to

winning streak.
After d rapping to 4-5

school-record 11-game
winning streak. The General s
outscored the opposition 33-8
during the run.
W&L concluded the regular
season with a 12-5 overall record
and earned the top seed in the
ODAC Tournament. It knocked
off Sweet Briar, 4-1, in the quarterfinals and Randolph-Macon,

5-1, in the semifinals. The Generals then defeated second-seeded
Lynchburg,2-1, on a pair of goals
by senior forward Jane Beall to
capture the program's first-ever
ODAC Championship. With the
win, W &L received an automatic
bid to the NCAA Tournament
where it lost2-0 to Montclair State
in the first round.

The 2005 Washington and Lee football
season was s urprising fo r many reasons.
The Generals finished 7-3 m·erall, the
highes t win total in exactly 20 yea rs.
However, w hat was most surprising was
how W&L came to record its best season
since 1985.
The Gene rals either broke or tied 3-l
school record s d uring the yea r, fueled by
an offense whi ch averaged 381.5 yards
and 29.9 points per ga me. Both totals
ranked as the second-highes t in school
hi story.
Exp ectations were that the Genera ls
would win games on defense, just as they
did d uring a 200-! season which
saw them rank in the Top 25
na tionally in total defense and
scoring defe nse. What a difference a year m akes.
W&L o pened th e season
w ith a tough Alfred club who
was coming off an 8-3 season
in 200-l. The Generals led just
10-7 at the break, but began
to fi gure out a few thi ngs en
route to 26 second half poi nts
and a 36-22 v ictory. Among the
many ded uctions was that the
duo o f senior quarterback Greg
Twea rd y (Bethel Park, Pa.) and
sopho~ore w ide rece iv er Jack
Martin (Princeton, N .j.) could be a deadly
combination. Tweard y tossed a schoolrecord fi ve to uchdown passes, including
a school-record tying th ree to Ma rtin as
the Generals rolled .
The follow ing week, W&L struggled
on offense, but the d efense showed
gli mpses of its 200-l form in defea ting
Sewanee, 10-7.
W&L entered its third ga me of the
seaso n against Centre wondering how
good it may be. The Colonels wa lked
away wi th a 35-26 win, bu t the Generals
realized that their offense was as strong
as it appeared during the season-opening win ove r Alfred . Tweardy threw for
a then ca reer-best 31 0 ya rds and th ree
touchdowns, wi th 206 ya rds and two
touchdowns being recorded by Martin .
The follow ing week, W&L pu t all the
pieces together and the result w as a H -7
w in over Randolph-Macon, the first by
a W&L team in Ashland since the 1989
ca mpaign. Freshman Stu art Sitte rson
(A tlanta, Ga.) began to establish himse lf as
ano ther offensive threat for the Generals,
rushing for -!8 yards and one touchd own
on eight carries. He also returned a punt
46 ya rd s for a touchd own, the first punt
return touchdown by a W&L player since
the 1979 season.
Bouncin g back aga inst Ca tholic the
fo llow ing week proved to be difficult,
but a Tweard y to Martin touchdown
with five secdnd s rema ining gave the
Generals a 27-24 win . Tweardy upped
his ca reer-high w ith 395 yard s and two
touchdow ns, Ma rtin ca ugh t nine p.1sses

Colton Ward (Charlotte, .C.) began
to shake d ouble tea ms for 99 receiving
yards.
The season would be defined the
following week when the Genera ls
faced a Hampden-Sydney tea m that
many believed to be a playoff contender.
Again, W&L started slowly but picked
up stea m late in the first half en route
to a thrilling 38-3..! victory and a 5-1
overall record. Tweardy aga in had a
career week, throwing for 397 yards and
two touchdowns, including a 29-ya rder
to Ward on a -lth-a nd-2 play with 34
seconds remaining that proved to be

zone interceptions and three blocked kicks
in a 17-13 loss. The Generals bounced
back, however, the post victori es in their
fi nal two ga mes, defea tin g Emory &
Henry (-!5-7) on the road for the first time
since .1981 and d owning Case Western
Reserv e (34-10) in the season fi nale.
Upon looking back at the season, it's
tough for the Generals to consider w hat
mighthave been. W&L'sthree losseswere
by a tota l of 15 points to three teams that
combined to go 24-9 overall.
Tw eardy shredded the record books

&L Head Golf Coach Gavin Colli ton knew he'd be taking the tee
box for the 2006 season with another young squad. What he didn't
know was how much those young golfers would progress during
the course of the season and how much they would accomplish
along the way. W&L began the season with a second-place finish at
the Randolph-Macon Invitational. The Generals were also carried
by their youth as sophomore Nathaniel James won the tournament
with a 71-68--139. Sophomore Steven Spivey finished eighth, while
freshman Andrew Green finished tied for lOth.
The very next tournament brought doubts though, as the
Generals placed 16th out of 18 teams at the Guilford Invitational.
The Generals struggled again two weeks later as they placed 11th
of 15 teams at the Greensboro Invitational. Again though, James
would carry the load and won the tournament with a 73-68--141.
Less than a week later, things started to come together as
W&L won the Virginia Division III Championship for the second
straight season. James continued his stellar play by winning the
event, but the remainder of the team began to catch up, including
freshman Beau Allen, who finished fifth.
After a long break for the winter months, the Generals took
back to the links in mid-March and played like they were in midseason form with a second place finish at the Barton College Invitational. An eighth-place finish out of 24 teams at the Jekyll Island
Invitational a week later started giving the young Generals plenty of
momentum and confidence for the stretch run. James tied for 11th
overall and junior Anthony Zappin began playing well as the Generals headed towards the ODAC Tournament. The regular season
ended with a win in theW &L Buck Leslie Invitational. Spivey placed
second and was joined in the Top 10 by James, Zappin, junior Matt
Nickles and Allen.
At this point, the Generals were firing on all cylinders heading into the ODAC Championship. W&L shot a 306-302--608 and
finished in second place, just 12 strokes behind Guilford. Allen won
the event with a 74-74--148 and earned ODAC Rookie of the Year
honors. James was named the ODAC Player of the Year after tieing
for seventh. Zappin tied for lOth and was named the ODAC Golf
Scholar-Athlete of the Year.
James was one of five individuals nationally chosen to participate in the NCAAs. His tremendous season culminated with a
34th place finish out of 120 golfers and he was named PING First
Team All-South Region and Third Team All-American.

Clark Finney celebrates with a team-

The 2006 W&Lmen's lacrosse season
may have appeared to be a disappointment to some. The Generals finished
with just a 7-6 overall record. However, a
closer look at the season will bring happy
thoughts about the seasons to co me.
W&L played its usual brutal schedule, and did so w ith one of the youngest
teams in the history of the progra m. The
Generals' roster sported just two seniors,
w hile the starting lineup featured six
underclassmen. Furthermore, of the
Gene rals' six losses, five came to tea ms
ranked in the Top 10 and the sixth loss
was to a team ranked 17th.
W&L's youn g squad was out ma tched
in an ea rly 17-2 loss to second-ranked
Gettysburg, but the team recovered to
become a seasoned group that hung wi th
a talented Roanoke tea m (ranked third )

brought by the youth . Freshman attackman Tim Skeen finished the season as the

17 goa ls and a team-best 18 assists. He

brought scoring to the midfield and finished second in sco ring with 32 points on
a team-best 2-l goals and eight assists en
route to Second Team Ali-ODAC laurels.
Freshman faceoff specialist Seldon Clarke
dominated at the faceoff X, winning 64.0

percent of his draws. Another freshman,
defenseman James Shanahan, started all
13 ga mes and was a rguably among the
team 's best defenders all season long.
Sophomore attack man Ned Rid er
started all 13 games and finished third
on the team in scoring with 29 points on
22 goa ls and seven assists. The common
theme here being tha t the Generals have
plenty of good, young talent that w ill be
the core that lifts W&L back to the top of
the ODAC in the coming years.
Martin and Ryan finished tied for
fourth on the team with 22 points, while
Arcati tallied five points and steadied the
youngsters on the second midfield line.
Goodwin and McCombs both garnered

tea m on campus, with members from
almost every fraternity and three international stud ents.
Most importantly, coach Tom Lovell
and sixteen members of the club toured
Argentina during spring break. No
club in W&L history has ever travelled
overseas, and only one
varsity team (the Football
team) has accomplished
this feat before.
The tour was absolutely significant to the team
on many fronts. It was a
p erfect bonding experience for the whole crew.
The team only grew closer
and stronger. We also got
to know a lot about Argentina, thanks for the Tovos
and Suarezs' wonderful
help in planning the tour.
The training session with
th e Argentina n ati on a l
team assistant coach Mario
Barandarian was an oncein-a-lifetime experience. The m an's
passion for rugby was an inspiration
to us all. Finally, we showed ourselves
what kind of rugby we were capable
of playing in those two close contests
in Mar d el Plata and Buenos Aires.
After Tino Tovo and Lovell's inspiring pre-game prep talks, we raised our
level so much that we almost won the
second game. The match was cancelled
wi th ten minutes to go in the second

half because of a devastating hailstorm.
When it hit Buenos Aires, a tree fell
onto the field before players and fans
started to run for cover.
Looking back, the 2005-2006 season
was a success by all means, and upperclassman lead ership was a major reason. Club president Robert "Albino"
Decosimo was a stud on and off the
field. Aformervarsitysoccerstandout,
Decosimo's lead ership and tackling
were indispensable to the pack.

and joined the club. The Tom Green
look-alike was a superb ball carrier.
In addition, his height and sure hands

provided W&L with the kind of dominance in the lineout that we never saw
before. Chris Applewhite and Adam
Jarczyk were rookies as well but they
both ga rnered respect by playing their
hearts out on the field and providing
depth on the sideline, another key attribute that the Minks lacked in years
past.
To conclude, the club needs to
thank the Mrs. Tovo and Mrs. Suarez
for their instrumental role
in making this spring break
tour happen. Not only did

he 2005 Washington and Lee men's soccer season was all about one
theme-- overtime contests. The Generals played in seven overtime
games, including six double-overtime contests. W&L went 3-2-2 in
those seven games and finished the season with a 9-6-2 overall record
and a 5-2-2 mark in the ODAC. The Generals earned the number
three seed in the ODAC Tournament and knocked off sixth-seeded
Randolph-Macon, 4-1, in the quarterfinals before being upset by
seventh-seeded Eastern Mennonite, 2-1 , in the semifinals.
Senior defender Derrick Lott and sophomore
forward Jack Palmer earned First Team AllODAC honors, while sophomore midfielder Josh
Dodds was named to the second team. Senior
defender Roger Morscheiser garnered honorable
mention recognition and 30th-year Head Coach
Rolf Piranian was named the ODAC Coach of
the Year.
The Generals closed out the regular season
with a 1-0 loss to Virginia Wesleyan and a 2-1 win
over Lynchburg to finish the regular season with
a 9-5-2 record.
Palmer led the team in scoring with 24 points
on a team-high 11 goals and two assists. He also
had a team-best five game-winning goals, which is tied for the second
most in a single season in program history. Palmer's seven career gamewinning goals are tied for fifth all-time. Dodds
finished second on the team in points, goals, and
game-winning goals, while his three assists tied
for the team lead. In goal, sophomore Ted Sheedy
posted a 7-4-2 record with a 0.93 goals-against
average and a .740 save percentage.

Men's Tennis
The 2006 Washington and Lee
men's tennis season produced a
consis te nt ending, but the yea r
was any thing but consistent for
Head Coach David Detw iler and
his troops. The sixth-year mentor
juggled his lineup and recovered
from a 2-3 start to lead the Generals
to a 13-win season for the four th
straight yea r. W&L also won the
ODAC Championship for the 11th
straight season and qualified for
the NCAA To urna ment for the
sixth straigh t year, advancing to the
second round each time.
The ea rl y struggles could be attributed not to the team's play, but
to the qu ali ty of opponent. W&L's
three ea rly losses were to a pair of
Division I schools in Richmond (6-1)
and Furman (7-0) and Division Ill
power Emory Unive rsity (7-0).

win five of their next six contests

to improve to 7-4 overall. After
a narrow 4-3 loss to Denison, the
Generals again strung together a
series of wi ns to improve to 11-5
overall heading into showdowns
to three nationally-ranked squads.
Prepared for a hi gh, the team's
spirits were dampened by a trio
of 4-3 losses in matches that could
have gone either wa y.
W&L's confidence grew again
with the team claiming the ODAC
title in mid-April and continued
to grow wi th a 4-3 vic tory over
Division I James Madison in late
April.
W&L's resume of strong opponents persuaded the tournament
selection committee to select them
to the NCAA field and the Genera ls
rewarded them with a 4-0 wi n over
a solid Sewanee team in the opening
round. However, the season came
to an end as so man y others had

with a loss to Emory University in
the second round.
Along the way, the Generals
achieved some great things. Senior
David Shay was named the ODAC
Player of the Year after winning the
league titleat No.l singles and No.3
doubles. A two-time All-American,
Shay finished his s tella r ca reer
ranked fifth all-time at W&L with
75 career singles victories.
Fellow seniors Jordan Eichenb e rger a nd Charl es A nd e rson
and sophomores Na t Estes, Seth
Feibelman, Tim Ross and Sanford
all earned All-ODAC honors as the
Generals swept all six singles fli ghts
and two of the three doubles fli ghts
at the ODAC Championships. Additionally, Anderson was named
the ODAC Men's Tennis ScholarAthlete of the Year.

The Washington and Lee women's tennis program has become
a certified juggernaut. The
Generals have produced a 98-9
record over the past four years
and have appeared in the NCAA
Division lil Championship match
threetimes duringthatspan. The
only thing sepa rating W &L from
near perfection has been Emory
Universi ty. Though the Genera ls
entered the 2006 a tiona! Championshipmatchwitha28-0record
and No.1 ranking in Division Ill,
the Eagles again stymied
the Generals with a 5-l
victory and their fourth
straight national championship.
The Ge n e r a ls took
on all com er s during
the year, including 18
tea m s ranked among
the Top 30 in the nation. Among them was
a regular season meeting a t Emory, where the
Generals cruised to a 6-3
victory. As disappointing as the
loss in the championship match
is to the program, Head Coach
Cinda Rankin and her players can
be proud of the many accomplishments they achieved through the
story book season.

place and third place finish at two invitationals, and had six wrestlers notch a w inning record. The Generals placed first out of seven
teams at the Washington and Lee Invitational, their first win at the
W&L Invite since capturing three consecutive titles from 1984-86.
W&L also placed third out of six team s at the Apprentice School
Invi tational for the second straight yea r.
W&L opened the 2005-06 season at the Southern Virginia
Open where it won seven of the eight weight classes with all seven
grapplers posting a 2-0 record. The Generals returned to the mat at
the Ursinus Invitational where they had two second- place and two
fourth-place finishes. W&L then finished seventh out of nine teams
at the Scranton Invitational.
Following the w inter break, the Generals opened their dual
meet schedule by going 2-1 at the Washington and Lee Quadrangular. The Generals defeated Centennial-rival Gettysburg and Waynesburg, but lost to Wilkes. The following week w hen it hosted the
Washington and Lee Invitational, the Generals won the invitational
with 77 points to finish 26.50 points ahead of second-place Scranton.
Fresh off their win at the W&L Invitational, the Generals recorded
a 2-1 mark against three Centennial Conference opponents at the
McDaniel Quadrangular. W&L now stood at 4-2 overall and 3-1 in
the Centennial Conference. Christopher led the way by posting a 3-0
mark, while Lawrence and Sa tal off both posted 2-1 records.
W&L then upped its record to 5-2 with a 39-6 victory over
Southern Virginia. The Generals won eight of the 10 matches, including a pin by Courtney. W&L continued its strong run with the third
place result at the Apprentice Invitational w here it won two weight

The Generals ended the regular season with three consecutive losses to Centennial Conference opponents to finish 5-5 overall and 3-4 in the conference. They concluded their season with an
eighth place result at the Centennial Conference Championships.
Christopher placed third in the 285-pound weight class and Hosford
took fourth at 125 pounds. Though the season ended with a disappointing finish at the Centennial Conference meet, the Generals
three Centennial Conference victories were the most since the 200001 season. With the entire squad returning, including just one junio r
(Courtney), W&L will look to continue to build upon the successes
of the 2005-06 season .

We've finally made it. The end of our
college careers.

But instead of an ending,

we find ano ther begi1ming. The beginning
of a new job, new school, new town, or even
a famil y. Wherever our paths may take us,
though, we will always re member and be
gra teful for those who have loved and supported us through it all. For those who kept
believing in us when we didn ' t think we
would make it. For those who will always be
there with a h elping hand, a word of comfort,
and a shoulder to cry on. To all of our friends
and famil y, thank you from the Class of 2006.

Throug h faith and determination Christina, you have become your dream. Keep dreaming and
be ing a trail-blazer for all of your siblings. Thi s is as natural for you as the rhythm of a healthy
heart beat. Congratulations on a job well done. - Lot>e, Mom ami Dad & Grm1d Parents
I admire the fact that Chris is outgoing and has always been able to speak her mind; there's never
a dull moment, and always a funny story to be told. - Katri1za
Congratulation s Christina; You made it through all of 4 years of undergrad studies and you've
reali zed adulthood. We also want to thank you for all the things you went through in being there
for us. Taking u s to the Library, Burger King, B & J'S, to Grandma's house, thinking of us while
traveling and bringing us souvenirs. -Dominique, Benjamin & Daniel
Cong ratulations Christina! You did the impossible, you finished undergrad. Now, being your
most intelligent s ister I realize how much of an ins piration I was to you. Therefore when you
become successful-you know, make your first million-I only ask to receive 30%. I'm very proud of
you Chris, keep it up. Love you. - Tracey
Christina, you know it only seems like it was only yesterday when you were in grade school with
us - Yeah those were the times. Anyway congratulations on being the first of the eight to graduate
from coll ege and achieving such a high accomplishment. - Jonathan
Christina, I want to congratulate you on one of your biggest accomplishments. - Jerry, Jr.
Christina, we are all so very proud of who you are and what you've accomplished . The village
(church family) always knew it was in you to excel from those many days of choir rehearsal,
Sunday school, ushering, and making critical analysis of your pastor's (Rev. J. Cork) sermons.
This only proves that you listened to a lot of what everyone said and then made up your mind to
search and discover the unique person God created in you. Before we all get emotional and stuff,
we all took out some time to shout, dance and rejoice so we won't embarrass you at the graduation ceremony doing what comes natural- you do feel us on this one don't you- yes, yes, praise
him and hallelujah- Warning we feel a Praise alert erupting. - Opm Vision COGIC

Earth's the right place for love:
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree,
And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk
Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
But dipped its top and set me down again.
That would be good both going and coming back.,
One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.
-From "Birches" by Robert Frost

We stop to hear the chimes.
Worn steps on which we linger
Slowly yield to time.
But when we doubt our future's course,
Our honor sets us free.
A timeless trust in our Alma Mater,
Washington and Lee.
As the bells ring out the hour
and echo through the halls,
we sense in this brief moment
the strength within these walls.
But when we doubt our future's course,
Our honor sets us free.
A timeless trust in our Alma Mater,
Washington and Lee.
