As a high school student-athlete, Linley Dawson was looking for a university that offered both her major and her sport. A women\u2019s lacrosse midfielder from Cincinnati, she said that the ability to continue to compete was key to finding the right fit \u2014 \u201cit would have been one of my biggest regrets to not keep playing in college.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dawson initially heard about Transylvania through a family friend, but it was her campus visit that solidified her decision to enroll. As she was taking her campus tour, future teammates approached her and introduced themselves. The positive environment made her feel at home.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEvery single person I passed on campus would smile or say hi to me,\u201d she said. \u201cOnce I got on campus, I knew, \u2018This is what I want. This is where I want to be.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That welcoming community of support \u2014 known colloquially as the \u201cTransy Bubble\u201d \u2014 is the perfect foil for Transy\u2019s location in the heart of downtown Lexington, another factor that Lawson found appealing. \u201cLots of small liberal arts schools are not in a densely populated area,\u201d she noted, adding that the campus location also allows students to take advantage of the opportunities inherent in city living. \u201cLexington gives you lots of things to do in your free time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transylvania\u2019s philosophy, politics and economics major attracted Dawson as well, but she quickly pivoted to economics after taking her first class with professor G. Rod Erfani, which she said fostered a love for the subject. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her minor also changed as a direct result of Transylvania\u2019s liberal arts education. After taking Intro to Drawing as her required art credit, Dawson continued taking art classes, eventually declaring a minor in studio art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dawson\u2019s extracurricular involvement is as well rounded and diverse as her academic interests. In addition to lacrosse, she is a member of Chi Omega, part of the Pre-Law Society, a First Engagements scholar and is involved with the 100 Doors to Success mentor program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With so many responsibilities, good time management skills are essential, and the structure provided by collegiate athletics helps her find balance. \u201cIt\u2019s so important to plan your time once you get involved in other things on campus, to make sure you have time to study and get that time to de-stress as well,\u201d Dawson said, citing team study tables as one way she structures her time. \u201cIn the fall, our coach makes a point to do study tables at least every other week for an hour or so to make sure we\u2019re staying on top of our work and our grades.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her coach, Rachel Bragg, has had a tremendous impact on her overall success. \u201cShe has really provided such a big support system,\u201d Dawson said. Both Bragg and Cassie Hamilton, Transylvania\u2019s assistant athletic director for communication and media, have individual meetings with the players multiple times each semester, a practice that Dawson says shows their concern for players\u2019 mental health and academics, as well as their on-field performance. \u201cThat\u2019s been a really important part of my college experience \u2014 having someone that cares so much about you as a player, but also as a student and as a person.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team also meets with sports psychologists regularly, in addition to encouraging players to take advantage of the services offered to all Transy students, such as the campus counseling center. \u201cWe always have people to listen and be our supporters,\u201d Dawson added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This holistic investment in players has yielded the program dividends. In 2022, the women\u2019s lacrosse team made it to the second round of the NCAA DIII tournament, a history-making occurrence<\/a> for the young program. Dawson, who netted a hat trick in the first tournament game, recalls the 2022 season as one of rebuilding, noting that \u201caccomplishing something like that is one of my favorite memories because we weren\u2019t expected to win and had worked so hard to get to that point. Team chemistry was important to getting so far and having that success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While she may hang up her lacrosse stick post-graduation, Dawson\u2019s experience as a college athlete has shaped her future career plans. After earning her undergraduate degree in 2024, she hopes to attend law school and eventually practice sports law, an area she has been able to learn more about through her involvement with Transy\u2019s Center for Academic and Professional Enrichment and her 100 Doors mentor, an attorney practicing in Washington, D.C. \u201cThe career development office has helped me so much in terms of providing me with opportunities and names of people to reach out to,\u201d Dawson said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The leadership skills fostered by her experience playing lacrosse at the collegiate level will also serve her well in her future career. Explaining that the team doesn\u2019t have captains, Dawson stressed the importance of each player holding their teammates accountable as well as clear and constant communication \u2014 skills developed on the field that will help her communicate effectively with her clients and in the courtroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dawson encourages high school student-athletes to visit <\/a>Transy\u2019s campus to see firsthand the opportunities available to an NCAA athlete, as well as to experience the camaraderie of this tight-knit community. \u201cTransy provides such a family-oriented environment,\u201d she said. \u201cNo matter where I go, I see a familiar face on campus. I came in not knowing a single person here, and I\u2019ll come out with some of my best friends.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
