DA ’03 West Coast Update

Class Notes
Class of 2003
Posted on March 1, 2013

Ben Lovejoy (DA 2003) is in the NHL and was recently traded from the Pittsburgh Penguins to the Anaheim Ducks. He’s doing very well (3 assists in his first 6 games). Ben & I lived next to each other in Field dorm our sophomore year (2000…which was also Mr. Kapteyn’s first year!) and were teammates in both hockey & lacrosse. I moved to Newport Beach about a month ago from Pasadena for a new job. About 2 weeks after moving to Newport Beach, I got a text message on Feb 6th from Ben: “Got traded to Ducks tonight!” Anyway, to make a long story short, it’s been a pretty amazing coincidence to see an old DA teammate/classmate/buddy play in the NHL, in a city on the opposite side of the country from DA.
