CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Katey Stone, The Landry Family Head Coach for Harvard Women's Ice Hockey, announced members of the incoming Class of 2025 today (May 20). In addition to the first-years, Stone elected to recognize those student-athletes who have not yet had the opportunity to wear the Crimson jersey. This includes members of the Class of 2024, Eva Dorr, Paige Lester, Rose O'Connor and
Taze Thompson, who enrolled in remote classes during the 2020-21 academic year.
"We are thrilled to announce the Class of 2025" said Stone. "This group of young women has been waiting patiently to finally step foot on campus and compete for the Crimson. They are a talented and determined group that will fit right in alongside our returning players. It's time to drop the puck and get after it!"
