Congratulations to this month’s Alumni of the month, Brett Barna!
When did you play?
2002 – 2006
What position did you play?
Centers + Back 3
What was your favorite memory as a member of the club?
Organizing service trip for 45 team members to Khao Lak, Thailand, after Tsunami in 2005. We helped rebuild a devastated community and played two matches, one in Bangkok and one in Phuket
It was a great deal of mental conditioning in addition to the grueling hours of physical torture at the hands of Stu that prepared us for our rematch. That day really drove home the idea that you can lose mentally long before you lose physically on the field, and hearing the whistle blow and seal our victory was one of my most inspirational and treasured memories.
Did you receive any special honors as part of the club
Elected president 2005-2006. And of course, the honorable alumni of the month designation
What are you doing now?
