Abby Peterson, a 2021 graduate at GHS, will continue her academic and athletic career at RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute).

As a senior, Peterson was a force for a field hockey team that crushed every opponent this fall, finishing 14-0 and winning a conference title with a 7-0 win over Hall. The Guardians outscored their opponents 71-2 during the undefeated season.

Peterson, who also played lacrosse for two season and was the Director of Bowling Operations/Captain for the Bowling Club, leaves GHS with four years of fond memories, “I am going to miss my friends and teachers at GHS the most because they’ve been my support through the ups and downs of high school.”

Outside of sports, she played cello in the school’s orchestra and was the head of the makeup department in drama club. She was also a member of Peer Education, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, and Homeroom Advisory, as well as being part of Mu Alpha Theta, the Math National Honor Society, and National Honor Society.

Next fall she will join a Redhawks field hockey team in Troy, NY led by Bre Lowe, who will be coaching in her first official season at RPI after last year’s COVID cancellation.

​“I choose RPI because of its excellent academic reputation. RPI allows me to study engineering at one of the top research universities in the nation while continuing to play the sport I love,” stated Peterson, who will major in Chemical Engineering, “I am most excited to compete at the next level of play, especially because of the new incoming coach at RPI. I am thrilled to see where she takes the team.”
