    Coach Guido is awesome. She cares about players on and off the field. Done a great job turning around culture from a horrible previous coach. I expect great things from future Colgate WLax teams.

    Being a collegiate athlete is difficult both mentally and physically. Lyndse cares about all parts of what it takes to be a student-athlete, both academically and athletically. She will give you a chances and wants to help you improve as a player and a person. I had an incredible 4 years at Colgate and was lucky enough to have a coach that believed in me.
