Sad News: Forester Sophia Lane Passes Away

Sophia Lane, a member of the 2015-16 Lake Forest College women's golf team, passed away Tuesday at the Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago.

Lane, a rising senior from Naperville, Illinois, was well-known on campus for her spirited personality and through her academic and co-curricular endeavors. She was a business major, a member of the Delta Delta Delta sorority and the Creative Arts Pathway Leadership Team, and lived in the Cleveland Young International Center. 

As a member of the women's golf program Sophia played in nine of the team's 11 events during the 2015-16 academic year. She was also an active member of Forester Fanatics, an on-campus organization that promotes and enhances athletic school spirit.
