SISTER ACT LEADS TO CHAMPIONSHIPS
WINDSOR, Vt. — Elliott Rupp has been a standout student athlete at Windsor and when she entered her senior year, along came freshman Audrey Rupp. “It was incredible to be able to have my sister on my team this season, these times are the best,” said the elder Rupp after a successful soccer season which had the Lady Jacks falling in the quarter finals, but that was just the start.
“The girls are so competitive, it just doesn’t stop,” said mom Jen Rupp during basketball season. That competitiveness led to the pair capturing their first title together as the Jacks left Barre as part of the division 3 girls state championship. Because Windsor doesn’t have a girls lacrosse team, the sister duo headed up I-93 to Hartford and picked up right where they left off in Windsor. They turned in their green and gold colors and suited up wearing Hartford Red, White and Blue and ended up with state championship #2 on an undefeated Hurricane team that grabbed the Division 2 crown.
“We practice hard all year, we just hate to lose,” said Audrey during an interview during round ball season.
