Bishop Stang Senior Julia Chausse signed a National Letter of Intent yesterday to play for Simmons University Women’s Lacrosse team (in Boston, Massachusetts), a Division-3 team in the Great Northeast Athletic Conference. Julia’s parents, Don and Paula, her sister Emma, her grandparents Donald and Irene Chausse, and several friends were on hand for the signing. Bishop Stang administrative leaders and the girls’ head lacrosse coach, Lauren Pratt, were also in attendance.

Julia has played on the Bishop Stang Varsity Lacrosse team since her freshman year and is looking forward to her final season playing competitively alongside her sister. Julia first saw Simmons in her junior year and felt it was a good fit “after staying overnight this year because I enjoyed meeting the team members and felt comfortable with them immediately. I had already met Simmons coach Molly Devilbiss at a tournament, and I am looking forward to learning from her.”

Although Julia knew she wanted lacrosse to be a part of her college experience, academics are just as important for her. Julia will be studying in the Simmons’ Nursing program, and is very excited that “the nursing program at Simmons will provide an opportunity to learn at some of the best teaching hospitals in the world, including Mass General, Dana Farber, Brigham and Women’s and more.”

Julia thanked her parents, Don and Paula, her grandparents, and her sister Emma for all of their love and support. She also thanked her friends, teammates, Coach Pratt, and her club coach, Bill Villareal. Julia was especially grateful to her Dad for “teaching her the game that she loves.”

The signing took place at Bishop Stang High School in North Dartmouth, MA. Contact Bishop Stang Athletic Director, Dennis Golden for more details on the National Letter of Intent at dgolden@bishopstang. com or (508) 996-5602 ext 427.
