The George Mason women's lacrosse team has traveled to both Japan and Europe in the past. The following testimonials are from former players whose lives were impacted by the trips: "Traveling overseas with Mason was a once in a lifetime experience. I will always remember, and be grateful for, the unique opportunity to visit different countries and observe various cultures sight seeing, while simultaneously competing on an international level. Traveling overseas allowed us to expand our knowledge and understanding of the game, as well as our understanding of one another. We left our trip with lifelong memories and returned to the states a closer-knit group."
- Katie Linnertz (Class of 2007) "Our team trip to Japan was absolutely incredible and truly one of the best experiences of my life. Not only did I get to see fascinating and beautiful Japan but I was able to experience their culture first hand. This is something that you are truly unable to do on a "vacation." Sharing this experience with my fellow teammates made the adventure that more memorable! On this journey I also acquired lifelong e-mail/Holiday card friends! It is so neat to have a connection across the world."
- Kelly Lephart (Class of 2000) "Going to Japan was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me. I am not sure if I would have ever visited Japan, but looking back I am thankful to have had the opportunity to experience a completely different culture. Our Japan trip was a great bonding experience for our team. Even though I had just graduated when we traveled, I felt like I got to know a lot of my teammates on a different level while we were away. Even though our international trip was seven years ago, I will always hold close the memories of our trip to Japan (and thank God that I do not have to eat fish for breakfast in the morning!).
