Jamie Lee Rattray, a senior from Clarkson University, won this year’s Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award, a prize presented annually to the top player in NCAA Division I women’s ice hockey.

“Jamie Lee is the definition of hard work paying off,” said Matt Desrosiers, co-head coach of Clarkson University. “The energy she brings to every practice and game is unmatched and is infectious to the rest of her team. She embodies everything the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award represents; a top performer in the country, competitiveness, performance in the clutch, personal character, and most importantly a true passion and love for the game of hockey.”

Aside from her impressive stats, Rattray is actively involved with her college women’s hockey program’s volunteer initiative with local youth hockey players. She also helped raise money for the Dalton Guyette Memorial Award to assist less fortunate children living near the school.
