Ole Miss Women’s Club Lacrosse beat Arkansas 16-4 and Samford 19-6 in the 12th annual Wheat Memorial Tournament on Saturday, Feb. 22.
The Wheat Memorial Tournament, hosted by the Ole Miss Women’s Club Lacrosse team, is played every year in honor of Sarah and John Wheat, two University of Mississippi students killed by a driver under the influence in October 2012.
Sarah was the co-founder of the women’s lacrosse program at the university, and John was the head coach of the men’s lacrosse team.
John, the oldest of four children, was five weeks away from graduating with a degree in accounting and a minor in Russian.
