Today's player spotlight features a player who was one of the original Lions Women's 15s team members and a stalwart of the 7s side @kkhirt!

Hometown: Lake Zurich, Illinois
College: Illinois State University
Position: Flyhalf
Favorite Rugby memory: In 2017, I had the opportunity to travel with the U24 Midwest Thunderbirds to Dublin. Not only did we get to play some of the top clubs in the country, we watched USA compete in the Women's World Cup, made new friendships, drank some Guinness, sang songs, and enjoyed all the scenery Ireland had to offer.
Proudest rugby accomplishment: Back to back to back Midwest Championship wins with the Lions as well as multiple National appearances
Why the Lions: @skish0509 introduced me to the Lions in 2016 and I will be forever grateful. The Lions provide a competitive environment that challenges you to be your very best.

With the 7s season getting underway we're highligh

With the 7s season getting underway we're highlighting the Men's and Women's players that make up the teams this summer. First up, second-generation Lion @willchevalier01!

Hometown: Naperville, IL
College: Junior at @rugbyiu
Position: Fly Half and Wing

Favorite rugby memory: Went on a two-week tour to Cape Town, SA in high school. I got to play against top-level competition and explore what the city and its surroundings had to offer. From touring Super Rugby’s @dhlstormers home pitch, to visiting Robben Island, being face to face with lions on a safari, and a whole lot more, it was truly an unforgettable trip.

Proudest rugby accomplishment: Being an injury reserve for the Youth Olympic 7s team in 2018.

Why come to the Lions?
It was always a goal of mine to represent the Lions, especially because my dad used to wear the jersey. Not only does the team environment attract the top talent in the area every summer, but the culture of the club demands your absolute best in every training session and game. The combination of skill and expectations that we hold ourselves to elevates us above our competition and it is what allows us to be competitors for a 7s national title every summer. #backinblack
