MILTON, Mass. – Following the cancellation of the spring seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including Senior Days, the Curry College Athletic Department wanted to give the senior student-athletes time to reflect on their career with the Colonels.

We continue our Senior Reflection web series and today we have Matthew Lemay (Raynham, Mass.) from men's lacrosse:

Major: Management

Favorite Thing About Your Sport: My favorite thing about lacrosse is having the ability to compete every day with my teammates.

Favorite Moment on the Field With the Colonels: My favorite moment on the field with the Colonels was being a part of the programs' first playoff win.

What Being a Student-Athlete Has Taught You: Being a student-athlete taught me how to work with others to achieve something on a larger scale.

What You'll Miss Most About Your Team, Curry, and Being a Student-Athlete: I'll miss being around the guys every day, whether that's an early morning run, a lift, or a team meal. I'll also miss the atmosphere of the locker room.

Plans Post-Graduation and How Being a Student-Athlete Has Prepared You For Your Future Career Goals: I plan on staying involved in lacrosse through coaching. I think being a student-athlete taught me many things I'll carry forward, such as time management and how to handle multiple tasks and commitments at once. 

What Advice You Would Give to Future Colonel Student-Athletes: Just enjoy the time you have and don't take it for granted. You never know when the ride is over.
