Nashville, Tennessee
Kemper Robinson, a senior midfielder at Vanderbilt University, has been selected to participate in the 2025 IWLCA Senior All-Star Game, an event celebrating the top senior lacrosse players from across the nation. The game will take place on Saturday at Tierney Field in Sparks, Maryland, starting at 2 p.m. CT.
Robinson’s selection comes on the heels of her being named a first-team IWLCA All-Region earlier this month, a recognition that highlights her exceptional performance throughout the season. Leading her team offensively, Robinson has scored a total of 27 goals this season, also contributing with six assists. Her talents extend beyond offensive contributions, as she has shown remarkable defensive skills with 37 draw controls, 36 ground balls, and a conference-leading 32 caused turnovers.
Robinson’s Journey and Achievements
Originally from Owings Mills, Maryland, Robinson attended McDonough School, where she excelled in various sports including soccer, track, and lacrosse, even earning state championship titles in these disciplines. Coming from a family with a strong lacrosse background—her father playing at Ohio Wesleyan—Robinson developed a passion for the sport early on, often participating in games with her younger brother’s friends.
Robinson’s connection to Vanderbilt began when she attended a five-on-five camp in Nashville, which solidified her decision to further her education and athletic career there. In her freshman year, the Vanderbilt Commodores posted an 11-7 record, but the following season proved more challenging with a 4-11 record. Despite these ups and downs, Robinson’s performance has steadily improved. In her sophomore season, she recorded 12 goals and forced 13 turnovers, reflecting her growth as a player.
Current Season Performance
The Commodores are currently holding a record of 7-6 this season, with Robinson emerging as the team’s leading scorer. Her continuous improvement in offensive plays is attributed to strong support from her coaches and teammates, which has significantly bolstered her confidence on the field. Not only does she strive for personal excellence, but she also prioritizes teamwork and leadership, particularly in guiding the younger players on the team.
Looking Ahead
As the regular season approaches its conclusion, Robinson’s leadership and contributions are vital in advancing Vanderbilt Lacrosse’s quest for an AAC championship. Her journey thus far illustrates a remarkable progression, compounded by her robust work ethic and commitment to her teammates. The upcoming Senior All-Star Game is just one of the milestones marking her successful collegiate lacrosse career.
