The Maddog women are CRC 7s national champions
Wins over Howard, Northern Iowa, Notre Dame and Iowa took the D1 club title, and Giving Day raised nearly $47,000.
The Maddog women are the CRC Sevens Club National Champions! The Dogs beat Howard, Northern Iowa and Notre Dame before beating the Iowa Hawkeyes 15–12 in the final to take home the D1 Club Championship trophy.
With the leadership of All-Star captain Alex Peterson and three other NCR All-Stars, Kourtney Bichotte-Dunner, Molly McAlevey and Kyra Grimes, it has been another incredible season for coaches Margaret Reiss and Keith Cattanach and the whole team.
The 2025 CRC squad: Kyra Grimes, Milia Chamas, Molly McAlevey, Ella Hughes, Ella Bramwell, Kourtney Bichotte-Dunner, Ysabel Del Fierro, Riley Chapman, Kate Stuntz, Alex Peterson, Zora Hynnek, Caitlin Boland, Mira Mahmoud and Margaret Barnes.
“Each of these players earned their spot through their skills, consistent effort, commitment to the team, and belief in something bigger than themselves. They’ve pushed each other, held each other accountable, and helped shape a culture of grit and pride.”
Giving Day
Thank you for all the time and money you gave on Giving Day. This year the men’s club raised money for a new Coaching and Enrichment Fund supporting a national high school training camp on campus with the NCR All-Americans, with Eric Graham and Josh Dineen each matching gifts up to $10,000. The men raised just under $40,000 from almost 380 donors, and the women just over $7,000 from 170 donors. It’s the support of FONUR that keeps us running. We appreciate you!
