    "Fractured Time" performance by the Hinge Quartet

    - Peterson-Kermani Performance Hall Hinge Quartet presents "Fractured Time," a program of new and recent works that blur the boundaries between contemporary classical, electronic music, and avant-garde rock. This concert showcases the wide range of diverse music that composers are writing today, from Cole Reyes's beautiful ambient soundscapes, to the intense and brutal noise sculptures of Sam Pluta, to the rigorously freeform improvisations of Anthony Braxton, to the indie-rock inspired textures of Molly Joyce. Supported by the Birdsong Fund for Visiting Music Faculty.

    This Week's Scarlet and Brown Recap!

    The riding team had a strong performance when it mattered the most. The team took home two wins over the weekend, claiming their 14th straight Region 2 Championship. Harper Eskey '26 was named High Point Rider collecting a total of three blue ribbons. 

    Aidan Baracao '26 delivered a clutch win in singles to lift the men's tennis team to a victory over Skidmore 5-4 – their first win over the Thoroughbreds since 2009-10. It gave the Scarlet and Brown a 2-1 record for the season. 

    Men's basketball won the Liberty League semifinal Friday 63-48 over RPI to qualify for a second straight conference championship, before falling to Hobart in the final. Despite this, Trey Syroka '24 was named Liberty League Defensive Player of the Year and to the All-Liberty League Second Team. Adam Dudzinski '27 was named to the All-Liberty League First Team.

    It was a strong start to the year for No. 15 nationally ranked men's lacrosse, who improved to 3-0 by opening their home schedule with two wins, one over SUNY Potsdam 18-5 on Thursday, and a 15-8 win against Western New England on Sunday. Judge Murphy '24 and Paddy Condon '25 both received weekly conference awards for their efforts.

    Men's hockey skated to a win and a tie over the weekend, first beating Colgate with a thrilling three-goal third-period comeback to take a 4-3 overtime win. Then Cornell came back on the Saints the next night, ultimately leading to a 2-2 tie and a shootout loss. 

    Alli Sibold '26 broke a facility record at the "Liberty League Championship" Sunday at the event hosted by St. Lawrence University. Alli ranked with a time of 4:55.07, then also registered a new personal best in the 800m and was named Co-Outstanding Track Athlete and Liberty League Co-Performer of the Week.

    Leaving a Lasting Mark on St. Lawrence University

    In honor of Black History Month, we’re recognizing Black Laurentians throughout our history who have made a difference and left their mark on our community.

    As a student, Steve Peraza ’06 says he sometimes felt like the “lone pepper in a sea of salt.” It’s no surprise that the story of St. Lawrence’s first Black graduate resonated with him. Rev. Jeffrey Worthington Campbell graduated in 1933 and was the first Black Laurentian to be ordained as a Universalist minister by the St. Lawrence School of Theology in 1935. Thanks to Peraza, his legacy and impact is still alive today.

    Read more about Peraza’s impact and Campbell’s legacy on the St. Lawrence University Instagram or in the  St. Lawrence Uniersity News Article.
