Keough Receives Prestigious Athletic Award 

Caitlin Keough '25 was honored as the 2024-25 female recipient of the John and Parthenia Izzard award for Athleticism, Service and Achievement last week at Undine Barge Club’s Annual Captain’s Dinner at Castle Ringstetten.

This prestigious award is given in memory of John Izzard Jr. of Undine Barge Club on Boathouse Row and his legacy of “remembering what you learn and using it in life." Keough was nominated by coach Steve McGuinn last spring, she went through an extensive application and interview process, and the award committee rated the anonymous nominees on their athletic and academic achievements and commitment to service. She will receive her personal trophy at the Schuylkill Navy Awards Banquet in 2025, and she was also awarded a summer rowing invitation at Undine. SCH alumnus Matthew Miller '15 was an inaugural Izzard Award winner in 2014-15.
