Stacey Sue McCue passed away at Greenwich Hospital on August 24, 2021 after having been diagnosed with cancer one year ago.
Stacey was born on April 6th, 1974 to Ann and Thomas McCue. She grew up in Cos Cob, CT and attended Greenwich Catholic Grammar School, Central Middle School and Greenwich High School graduating in 1992. Stacey was an honor student and excelled in sports playing soccer, basketball and softball.
She earned a BA degree in English at Lehigh University in 1996 and it was there that she took up Lacrosse and played on Lehigh’s 1994 Patriot League championship team.
After graduation, Stacey went on a European sabbatical returning to Lehigh where she earned her Master of Education Degree while coaching the Lehigh Women’s Lacrosse Team. She went on to coach at The College of William and Mary and later Fairfield University.
