THEN SARA BAUER WOMEN’S HOCKEY (2003-07)
Catch us up on what you have been doing since graduation: “I took one year off before going back to school in 2009 for a two-year program at Teachers Col- lege. I finished this spring and received my master’s degree in education. I also played in the (Ca- nadian Women’s Hockey League) for a year for the Burlington team. There are some players from Wisconsin that have played there and it’s the league where a lot of the Olympic players play.”
What were the biggest highlights of your athletic career? “The two championships would be at the top of the list for sure. It was the first time I have ever won any championship for hockey and I’ve played hockey all my life. It was something special and I couldn’t believe we did it back-to-back.”
What is your best memory of being a student-athlete at Wisconsin? “No one particular memory stands out. It’s a special place and there are so many great opportuni- ties. The things we got exposed to day-in and day-out, the way we were treated as athletes and the education. I just enjoyed the whole experience.”
What is your favorite memory of Madison? “It sounds stupid, but I miss my scooter!”
