Send in the Stedsman!

Ripp, #1, standing his ground and in the "circle of trust"


This past Saturday ND Men's Lacrosse fans were treated to a special appearance of Kyle Ripp, Sted's senior and ND Men's Lacrosse goalie. Taking to the field after "rudyesque" shouts from enthusiastic fans as well as to preserve the comfortable lead of the team, Ripp played for the remaining four and half minutes of the game. Before leaving the field with the glory of a win, Ripp made a breathtaking and beautiful last minute save. Of the save, Ripp said, “I was lucky enough to get in for the last few minutes, which was just enough time for me to record a save. I'm very grateful to have made the save because if I didn't, I would have posted a 0% save percentage for my career, which is less than desirable."
