In Episode 109 of Rinkside Rundown, Chris Sinclair is joined by Kaitlin Finnegan, forward and co-captain of the University of Delaware women’s hockey team, the newest NCAA Division I programs in the country. Kaitlin walks through her hockey journey, from growing up in Kansas and carving out opportunities in a non-traditional hockey market, to her time at Lindenwood University, and now stepping into a leadership role during Delaware’s inaugural season. She shares what it means to be part of a program from day one, the challenges that come with it, and why those challenges are also what make the experience so special. This conversation is about perseverance, belief, and the excitement of helping grow women’s hockey at the Division I level. It’s also a reminder that there is no single path to the game, and that opportunity often comes from staying ready when the moment arrives.
