Congratulations to our students for their sporting victories!

Congratulations to Kyle Maggard (MPhil student) and Shoshanna Saxe (PhD student) for their recent wins in the Varsity Ice Hockey Men's and Women's matches. Kyle was Cambridge "man of the match" and scored 5 of the 8 Cambridge goals. Shoshanna played brilliantly and had very loud support cheering her on in the crowd!
