2015 DEFIANCE COLLEGE WOMEN’S LACROSSE MEDIA GUIDE
WELCOME FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Fellow DC Fan: It is a real pleasure to welcome you to our campus and to today’s game. We at Defiance College are extremely proud of our wonderful athletic program and of the many other activities taking place at DC. The students whom you are watching today are an important part of our larger DC family, and they are among the approximately 1000 DC students who benefit from the dedication and assistance provided by our wonderful faculty, alumni, staff, administrators, and friends. Students at DC receive a wide range of distinctive experiences as we strive to offer our students the best of all worlds. At DC, students get the individualized benefits of a student-centered small college, but they also get a world of opportunities beyond. What does this mean? It means that our students start working with us before they even start their classes to put together distinctive Personal Success Plans, so that we can work with them to tailor their DC education and experiences to their own individual interests and goals. Throughout their four years at Defianc, our students benefit from a broad range of activities and experiences that are structured both to help them achieve their individual dreams and also to enable them to stand out in the job market and when applying to graduate schools. As part of that approach, we work with our students to help them develop their own Defiance College Resume. DC students also participate in a broad array of curricular and extra-curricular activities that give students distinctive hands-on experiences in their relevant fields. Just to name a few examples, we are proud of the work that our Criminal Justice students do in investigating cold cases for Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office in Detroit; our Education students get hands-on experience working in classrooms as early as their freshman year; Science students run and manage a 200+ acre wildlife preserve; through our Business Advantage Program, business, marketing, finance, sales, accounting and other students get hands-on experiences creating and running actual businesses. I could go on and on in terms of the different opportunities our Communications, Sport Management, Pre-Med, Social Work, Graphic Design, and students in many other areas. We are all partucularly proud of the great work that our students have done running Project 701, a unique student-run, separately-legally-incorporated non-profit, in which DC students create, develop, run and manage service projects. From working with the two hospitals in town to run a free primarycare clinic to micro-finance lending; from providing computer repair services to packing backpacks full of food for needy elementary school students to take home on weekends, our DC students are gaining the tools to become entrepreneurial life-long learners, while also helping to address important local, regional, national, and international issues. In fact, Defiance College was recently named one of the top 20 schools in the country in terms of community service and engagement. DC students also get unique opportunities to travel both domestically and internationally. Under our DC Global Program, we actually guarantee an international opportunity in the junior and senior year to students in good standing who successfully complete our full four-year program. Over the past two years, DC students have traveled to Cambodia, Belize, Tanzania, Ghana, Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, London, Paris, Vienna, Prague, Hungary, Slovakia, and more. Similarly, on a domestic level, DC students have traveled to New York City, Washington, D.C., Portland (OR), Pittsburgh, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Kansas City, Des Moines, Denver, Selma, Memphis, Chicago, Nashville, Florida, South Carolina, New Mexico and elsewhere. We are very proud of the opportunities we give our students to open their eyes, raise their sights, open their minds, and , in many cases, open thier hearts as well. I hope you notice some of the recent improvements to our athletic facilities. Our George M. Smart Athletic Center (“the George”) began operation in February 2012, and we are thrilled with the opportunities our students have to use this 84,000 square foot facility, with its 200-meter indoor track, tennis courts, basketball courts, volleyball courts, batting cages, fitness center, weight room, and much more. The new turf on our football/lacrosse field was installed in December 2012, and we also recently renovated our outdoor E. Stevens Dix Tennis Courts. The new bleachers and improved flooring in our Weaner Center has also enhanced the experience for our fans, and more improvements are underway across campus this year as well. I want to thank our entire team, including players, coaches, trainers, and staff for the great work they do every day and the numerous ways in which they go above and beyond on a regular basis. I also want to thank our alumni, the parents of our athletes and the various organizations, all of whom donate generously to our athletic programs. Members of the Defiance College Board of Trustees, the Purple and Gold Club, and the Alumni Varsity ‘D’ all contribute immeasurably as well, both as individuals and through their organizations. And the incomparable fculty at DC, together with extremely dedicated administrators and staff, all combine to make DC the special place that it is. We are pleased to have you as our guest at DC today, and I hope that you will return to campus frequently for both sporting events and the numerous cultural and academic events we are proud to host. Go Jackets! Sincerely, Mark C. Gordon, President

DEFIANCE ATHLETICS PHILOSOPHY The Defiance College intercollegiate athletics program serves as a window of opportunity for all prospective studentathletes to experience an extra-curricular educational and physical activity that fits within the general mission of the college to develop the whole person. The student-athlete will be exposed to a variety of opportunities for personal growth in the areas of intellectual, emotional, spiritual, social and physical dimensions as it relates to each individual and their respective sport. The student-athlete, as a team member, will be involved in a learning community that will strive for excellence both on the field and in the classroom while maintaining a dignity of fair play and continued emphasis on positive sportsmanship. Jointly, the coaches and student-athletes will build an engaged environment that will accentuate the learning process not only within the competitive arena but also within the college campus and the community as a whole. An emphasis will be placed on the impact of participation and personal growth, rather than scoreboard success, in a balanced sports program where equitable sports opportunities will be available to both genders. The student-athletes of Defiance College choose to participate in the intercollegiate athletics program for a variety of reasons but none of which includes athletic related financial aid or the promise of financial security through professional athletic stardom. Through participation in the intercollegiate athletics program, a student-athlete continues to compete for the love of sport, the thrill of competition and the fulfillment of countless intrinsic values. The Defiance College intercollegiate athletics program strives to be an integral and cohesive part of the collegiate learning and living process, appropriately well suited to co-exist with the Defiance College mission statement…to know, to lead, to serve and to understand.

DEFIANCE COLLEGE ATHLETICS PHILOSOPHY The Defiance College intercollegiate athletics program serves as a window of opportunity for all prospective student-athletes to experience an extra-curricular educational and physical activity that fits within the general mission of the college to develop the whole person. The student-athlete will be exposed to a variety of opportunities for personal growth in the areas of intellectual, emotional, spiritual, social and physical dimensions as it relates to each individual and their respective sport. The student-athlete, as a team member, will be involved in a learning community that will strive for excellence both on the field and in the classroom while maintaining a dignity of fair play and continued emphasis on positive sportsmanship. Jointly, the coaches and student-athletes will build an engaged environment that will accentuate the learning process not only within the competitive arena but also within the college campus and the community as a whole. An emphasis will be placed on the impact of participation and personal growth, rather than scoreboard success, in a balanced sports program where equitable sports opportunities will be available to both genders. The student-athletes of Defiance College choose to participate in the intercollegiate athletics program for a variety of reasons but none of which includes athletic related financial aid, or the promise of financial security through professional athletic stardom. Through participation in the intercollegiate athletics program, a student-athlete continues to compete for the love of sport, the thrill of competition and the fulfillment of countless intrinsic values. The Defiance College intercollegiate athletics program strives to be an integral and cohesive part of the collegiate learning and living process, appropriately well suited to co-exist with the Defiance College mission statement…to know, to lead, to serve and to understand.

SEASON OUTLOOK
The Defiance College women’s lacrosse team will look to develop its young program as the Yellow Jackets get ready to begin just their second season in program history in 2015. DC will once again be under the guidance of Head Coach Jason Allen and will return six players from last year’s inaugural team. “Things are going very well so far as we get closer to the start of the season,” said Allen. “The team is bonding well and several girls have really opened our eyes with their athleticism and hard work.” The Jackets will have one lone senior in Galysa Ratterman (Marion/ Ridgedale). Last season, Ratterman was the only goalkeeper and ended the season with a 15.22 goals against average while tallying 150 saves and a 38.0 save percentage. Offensively, DC will look to junior Katelin Patchin (Farmington/Bristol Local) to provide the spark. Last year, Patchin played in 13 games and started 12 while scoring a pair of goals and an assist for three points. She took a total of nine shots for a .222 shot percentage. In addition, Patchin had nine ground balls, four draw controls and three caused turnovers. Other players to watch this season include junior Nicole Baseley (Greenwood, Ind./Center Grove) and sophomore Jacqueline Burns (Rossford/ Notre Dame Academy) on defense. Baseley played in 15 games last spring and started 14. She finished fifth on the team in scoring with seven goals for seven points. She was fourth in shots (22) and was second in free-position goals and attempts (two-of-eight). On defense, Baseley had 20 ground balls and cause seven turnovers. Burns was also a mainstay in the lineup playing in all 16 games as a freshman and started 13. She
also got involved offensively, scoring five goals, including a pair of goals on freeposition attempts, and two assists for seven points. She tallied 19 ground balls to go along with five caused turnovers. “Jackie Burns, Nicole Baseley and Kate Patchin will serve as our team captains this season,” stated Allen. Burns and Basely are key returners for us on defense and will both will play huge roles. Patchin is a huge returner for us on offense and she will be called upon a lot.” Junior JoNae Apps (Wild Rose, Wisc./Wild Rose) will also return on offense following a season that saw her finish second on the team in scoring with nine points on seven goals, including one “man-advantage” goal, and two assists. She was third in shots with 26 and had a .269 shot percentage. She also recorded nine groud balls, 11 draw controls and caused four turnovers. Junior Alicia Carter (Wooster) rounds out the returning players and should see playing time at the midfielder position. Last spring, Carter played in all 16 games and started all but one game. She was part of the three-player tie in goals with seven and also added an assist to end the season with eight points, tying her for third overall. She took 28 shots, which were the second most on the team, and was two-of-seven in free-position attempts. Defensively, Carter was tied for second in ground balls with 37 and second overall in caused turnovers with 20. In addition, she recorded a total of 12 draw controls. DC will welcome 11 newcomers to the program in the 2015. Highlighting the list of newcomers will be freshmen midfielders Ashlyn Simion (Saline, Mich./Saline) and Elisabeth DeClaire (Canton, Mich./Plymouth). “We are really looking to Ashlyn to help us turn around the draw,” said

Allen. “She’s been training for a while on it. Elisabeth is a huge key to our success in the middle with her vast lacrosse knowledge and also her quickness.” Defiance will open the sesaon on Friday, Feb. 27 against Kalamazoo (Mich.) College. The Jackets are scheduled to take on Hanover (Ind.) College in the home opener on Thursday, Mar. 5 at Justin F. Coressel Stadium. The game will also be the conference opener as DC will now compete in the newly formed Ohio River Lacrosse Conference (ORLC). “The team is really starting to click and by mid-season, we should be a well oiled machine,” added Allen. “It should be an exciting year as we compete in a brand new conference. It’s an equal opportunity for all of the teams and we feel very confident with our chances.”
