This week's Lions Womxn's Player Spotlight is not only a player but the woman behind the curtain as the Senior Ops President @nedlyben!
Hometown: Edenville, Pennsylvania
College: I played a few weeks at @shippensburguniv but didn't pick rugby back up until I moved to Chicago
Position: Second-row
Favorite Rugby Memory: The 2019 Midwest Championship when the Women and Men both took home the Midwest title. It was a fantastic way to end our first fall season at the D1 level. With the Women and Men taking home silverware it was a great time to be a Lion.
Proudest Rugby Accomplishment: Coming back to the game and continuing to grow as a player after the covid hiatus. I know a lot of clubs have struggled to rebuild after 2020 but I am proud of the team for showing back up getting our heads back in the game. It's an individual accomplishment as much as it is a club accomplishment.
Why the Lions? In 2019 I really didn't know if I wanted to come back to rugby but after attending a few Lion's practices and having the coaching, practice structure, and facilities I was hooked. Being part of an organization that is focused not only on building world-class rugby facilities but growing the game for Youth, Men, and Women adds a level of camaraderie that I think makes the Lion's unique. #backinblack
