Cambridge University Lacrosse Club

Andy 'Mosh' Haquoil
Queens'
4th year

Mosh agreed to be Goalie because "chicks dig bruises". The proud owner of what is possibly the most expensive goalie shaft in England, mosh loves his lacrosse bling. He also has an unhealthy addiction to stash in all forms. Mosh enjoys dressing up as a rat, fine wine and suicidal dashes to the halfway line.

James Dods
Corpus Christi
2nd Year PhD

Having realised that Australia's sporting culture left much to be desired, Dodsy decided to move to the UK to further develop his game. The cold weather hasn't necessarily agreed with him, and so in an attempt to keep warm he has cultivated some immense facial hair. The rest of the squad can only aspire to such achievements.

Chris Jones
Jesus
1st year

Chris is currently revising his "Defenders don't have to run" philosophy, as he has discovered that meandering up the pitch and taking long-pole potshots from the restrainer is quite fun. Good defender; silly photo.

Ben McNamee
St. John's
2nd Year

Ben is possibly the smallest d-man in the south of England, but he makes up for it with aggression. Famous for his "semi-professional" trips, dubious kicks when clearing and flying glasses lenses.

Jamie 'Old Man' Muir Wood
Peterhouse
4th(?) year PhD

Having lost out to Stephen Hawking when the robotic chairs were handed out Old Man Muir Wood, the founder of Peterhouse, decided to try exercise. Fortunately for the club Jamie's pacemaker is wired to our finances, if we drop into the red he has to 'christen' another lacrosse stick which explains his zeal and perceived keeness.

Chris Smith
St. John's
1st Year PhD

A defector from the scums. Chris has been in almost every position, and can also play pretty much anywhere on a lacrosse pitch. Needs to remember not to shout "Come on Oxford!" when playing for us...

Hugh Barrigan
Clare
3rd Year

Hugo first tried mens after having played a bit of college mixed. A fairly steep learning curve hasn't stopped him, and he is now hitting people, although in as polite a way as possible.

Greg Blackman
Town

Despite the attempts to deport him, Greg is still in Cambridge showing off his skills. As a seasoned Div 1 player from across the pond he shoots faster, hits harder and shouts louder than most members of the team. Apparantly his girlfriend is "Like a dude... without a dick". A scary man.

Nick Clemons
Wolfson
Post-Doctoral Fellow

Clemo is another antipodean who started in season 2004-05, transferring his long-pole skills learnt down south to play short-stick middie. He likes to use his size to push his way through his opponents when he can't be bothered running. Clemo is not afraid to score a goal either, a skill that proved invaluable in the Flag's final where his 3 goals in as many minutes blew the opposition away after a tight first half.

Mike Dodson
Queens'
Diploma/MPhil

Another Queens' boy, Mike has taken to lacrosse like an American to a sport popular in America. An upcoming beginner.

Jack Gillet
Trinity
3rd Year

Will Hoult
Queens'
2nd Year PhD

Groundskeeper Willy always makes an impression in matches, a habit he continues by attempting to fertilise changing room toilets and the lawns of Oxford colleges. A personal acquaintance with the John's head porter and the dean of New College Will is always keen to share his love for lacrosse in the only way he knows.

Alan Hutchison
Queens'
3rd Year

Alan refuses to wear a helmet (or gloves)in training because "It's not like i can get hurt". Possibly related to Connor MacLeod.

Andy Jones
Fitzwilliam
3rd Year

Smoooove is an up-and-coming player. Lists his interests as "drinking his own bodyweight", presumably in cherry cola. Worryingly has been heard to say "Lets go wash our sticks together" to Jacko.

Dave Knowles
St. John's
3rd Year

Dave's first experience of this beautiful game was being roped into playing goalie for the second team varsity match two years ago. Afterwards Dave decided he had too many nerve endings to be a goalie despite conceding a lot more goals than he saved, and that he would try his hand on field. He's been hanging around ever since.

Ben Martin
Town

Ben brings plenty of experiance to the team, having played as a nipper down in Oz.

Sam Scott
Peterhouse
3rd Year

Samwise Gamgee is probably best described as "keen". He was brought up in a circus which explains his love of flair tricks (although it's not quite juggling) and his tiny hands.

Colin Shaw
Clare
Diploma

Colin is making a fairly successful attempt to be a perpetual student. Now in his early forties and studying for his 8th degree, we had to explain that lacrosse sticks no longer have to be made of wood and that no one understands Italian army jokes anymore.

Jotham Steed
Town

Our community involvement officer from APU. Having got a BA in "Reading without moving your lips" he stayed on for an easier Masters in Management. Nicknamed "Tigger" by teammates, he has plenty of enthuiasm both on and off the pitch, including for a sizable proportion of the female boaties on the cam...

Dom Summers
Wolfson
6th Year (Medic)

As a clinical medic, Dom is the only person who can break people on the pitch, and then patch them up afterwards. An up-and-coming beginner.

Meng Wang
Selwyn
4th Year (Medic)

Feared and respected within the squad for his fearsome temper, iron stomach and ribald jokes. Meng the Merciless loves nothing better than crushing the scums.

Oscar Bennett
Christ's
1st Year

Having lived both in the US and UK, Oscar has an awesome accent: a sort of mix between Lloyd Grossman and Kid Rock. The multiculturalism of the team personified in one person (sort of).

Alan Bowe
Emmanuel
2nd Year

"I know someone from Clare. Oh wait... I know someone called Clare..."

Albo crossed over to Lacrosse because Under 21s rugby was a bit soft. A tough cookie on the pitch, he doesn't let things like broken bones stop him until he passes out with pain. Once we teach him how to recognise his team from the opponants he'll be lethal.

Andy Martin
Queens'
3rd Year

When not sculpting his facial hair or donning his Velcro gloves to play with his woolly, Welsh friends Andy loves to dabble in a spot of lacrosse. Don't let his looks fool you, underneath his CULC mesh he is chiselled out of pure diamond. If he were any 'arder it would probably be illegal.

Tim Sabey
Magdalene
4th Year

Mild-mannered Timmy is a seasoned attack player with a viscious shot. His dodges are dazzling: no-one, not even Tim, knows what he is going to do with his stick...

Nick Walrath
Christ's
MIT 3rd Year

Nick is just this guy... Our replacement for Malies in the MIT stash-wearing department. Decent player, and hopefully he won't grow a pinapple on his head.
