THE COMPLETE STORY

Expanded Historical Profile

Cornelia Dougall, ORR Class of 1971, was one of the school’s early female multi-sport standouts. Her physical plaque lists track and field, volleyball, field hockey, basketball, and tennis.

She earned MVP honors in both field hockey and basketball during her sophomore, junior, and senior years. She was selected to the Southeastern Massachusetts Invitational Basketball Tournament All-Tourney Team and helped her field hockey and track teams win league titles.

Dougall was named Most Valuable Female Athlete in her senior year. The earlier Hall website biography also records a freshman physical-fitness record and places her achievements in an era when girls’ sports received less promotion and support. Those additional details come from the earlier biography.
