Trish D'Amato ‘03 was a two-sport athlete at LIU Post from 2000-03, playing field hockey and lacrosse. She made her presence known as a lacrosse player, as she was a four-time Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association First Team All-American. 

In just the Pioneers' second year (2001) as a program, D'Amato helped to anchor a defense that went on to win the school's first-ever NCAA Division II National Championship. Her stellar showing in the national title game earned her the tournament's Most Valuable Player nod, and later, IWLCA Division II Defender of the Year honors.

D'Amato was featured in two nationally-recognized publications, as well. She was showcased in Sports Illustrated's "Faces in the Crowd", and authored a Lacrosse Magazine feature on "Tips & Tricks" to improving lacrosse skills.
