Meet Alice Ripper, The Most Unique Grad Transfer In Women's Lacrosse

Posted Sep 20, 2024
Many transfers had to switch jerseys and cross state lines to earn rings. Alice Ripper crossed the pond with dreams of doing the same in Chapel Hill. Ripper, a midfielder for the England National Team, was in Chapel Hill last year as part of a U.S. tour that saw the squad play UNC. After the game, Ripper wanted to know if she had a chance of joining them. (USA Lacrosse Magazine)
