The Wisconsin Women held their annual winter team meeting this Saturday and elected new team captains for Spring 2013.
Center Nicole Helmer returns to captainship as leader of the backs for this spring, after serving as Backs captains previously a few years ago. Helmer has played for UW-Eau Claire and the Chicago Women, in addition to qualifying for both Midwest Senior All-Star 15s and 7s.
Lock Liz Robinson takes the reins of the forwards as a first-time captain for the team. Liz played previously for Georgetown University and the Milwaukee Scylla, in addition to playing for the Wisconsin Senior All-Stars.
Due to a national restructuring for all leagues, the team will elect new captains again in August 2013 to match competitive play expected to now run from Fall through Spring for women’s teams.
