Austen Gardiner- 1996

Austen was an impact player the day he started the first game of his first year at PEA. Coming from Baltimore, Austen had experience playing top level lax, and it showed. He developed a physical game to compliment his fantastic checks and stickwork that Austen took to Hobart College. As a four-year starter, and 2-year captain at Hobart, Austen earned collegiate Academic All-American honors in 2000. Austen certainly must be considered one of the top defenseman in the Exeter lacrosse modern era.
