AMHERT, Mass. - On Tuesday morning the Weekly Sports Luncheon Committee announced the speakers that will be featured through the month of March. The weekly event is meant to offer news and updates from coaches and student-athletes about what is going on throughout the UMass Athletic Department.
March 2nd marks the first date on the calendar this month as Mike Stone of the baseball team, Donald "Toot" Cahoon of the men's ice hockey squad, and a men's assistant basketball coach will speak.
On March 9th the coaches at the helms of the lacrosse programs will come to the Campus Center in the forms of Greg Cannella for the men and first year head coach Angela McMahon for the women.
The third week in March will offer the head coach of the women's rowing team, as Jim Dietz will be the featured speaker along with a TBA coach.
March 23rd will bring a trio of coaches with Judy Dixon of tennis, Julie LaFreniere of women's cross country/track and field, and Ken O'Brien of men's cross country/track and field.
The conclusion to the March schedule will not feature a group of coaches, but rather the student-athletes who are tabbed the Winter Scholar Athletes, to be announced later this month.
Each week, the Weekly Sports Luncheon is scheduled to take place in the Campus Center in the Amherst Room 1009, but is subject to change. Check UMassAthletics.com for any adjustments on speakers, rooms, or times.
