1. What branch of engineering is Lawlor majoring in?

2. Off the top of the head can you think of other Auriemma Players majoring in STEM disciplines?

3. I have heard a great deal about tough Husky practices. Breanna Stewart had to repeat a task over and over until she succeeded. Are these standards the same for TL and BP?

4. Why is Robin Selvig (Montana HC) not in the HOF? I am pasting a link below.

5. What was the St John's women's team nickname when the Men's team was known as the Red Men?

2 above. Please leave out bio/medical sciences. Physics, Chemistry, Math and Engineering only.

#5 is a funny question. My wife thinks the women's teams at Providence College used to be called the Lady Friars! So maybe the Lady Red Men ??

#4 - a. You have to teach at a university in the US? :rolleyes:
b. Voters only look at wikipedia and his profile there ends in 2010 with only 740 wins? :confused:
c. He had to leave the country to get win number 700 (mexico) so like with winning streaks he had to start back at 0 for the next game? :eek:
d. Give it a rest, nobody like's the bum, but there's no reason to rub it in!:(

Honestly - good catch, and it does sort of stand out.

I think Lawlor's Biomedical Engineering (my major, yay!!). As for past players in STEM, I think Heather Buck was nursing and Stacey Marron was pre-med (guessing she's a doctor by now)! Those are the only ones that come to mind immediately. And bio-sciences are most certainly part of STEM.
