Five years ago I first laid eyes on an adorable little girl from Freedom, New<br />

Hampshire. With a smile that could light up a room and a desire to please both her<br />

coaches and her teammates Shannon Ryan quickly earned her spot as a freshmen on<br />

the varsity team alongside a feisty and rambunctious Emily Fluke. For many<br />

athletes playing alongside someone like Flukey could have been daunting,<br />

distracting and depressing, but not for the girl from New Hampshire. Shannon did<br />

what she does best. She played, with all her heart, all her soul and she embraced<br />

every moment of every practice, every game, every win and every loss with the<br />

same smile that has endeared her to so many of us here on the Island. Shannon<br />

became a calm, collected and composed athlete. She plays with all she has, all the<br />

time. I have pushed Shannon’s limits over the past four years, tried to see just how<br />

far I could get her to go, and she always gave us more, dug deeper and worked<br />

harder. She doesn’t give in and she doesn’t give up. As a co-­‐captain with Conney and<br />

Fluke this season, Shannon offered her own gifts, possessing a passion for the game<br />

of field hockey, excellence in style and field sense, and a desire to not only improve<br />

as a player of the game, but as a captain for her teammates. It has been an honor and<br />

a pleasure to watch Shannon mature as an athlete and a person. For all that she has<br />

given and done to create a lasting legacy as a varsity field hockey player we award<br />

Shannon Ryan the <strong>2010</strong> Coaches Award, congratulations Shannon.<br />
