Good Knight – Mary Kearing ’80

As we work through a challenging time – each of us focusing on doing all the right things in the face of uncertainty – your extended Clarkson family is thinking of you.

Each evening, we hope to share a story of good things, Good Knights, as a way to remind each of us that, despite the realities of our challenging days, good things are still happening.  We will look for short stories highlighting members of the Clarkson community demonstrating the values we all share – integrity, teamwork, humility and a commitment to making the world a better place.

Mary Kearing ’80 was co-captain of the Clarkson Women’s Hockey team her senior year, as well as a member of the Crane School of Music orchestra. On March 23, 2014, the day the Clarkson Women’s Hockey team won their first NCAA championship, she received an old, hand-carved violin and case, and planned to restore it as a tribute to this achievement. Three NCAA championships later, and with all of her activities on hold because of the pandemic, she finally found the time to work on the project. Here’s to all those who made the Clarkson Women’s Hockey program so great!
