The Pat Lamb Award is given annually to two outstanding senior female athletes who have achieved athletic excellence and a high level of academic achievement. One award is given for team sports and another for individual sports. The award publicly honors Pat Lamb, Carleton’s first director of women’s athletics (1970–1985). Professor Lamb was an influential leader in the early development of increased opportunities for women not only at Carleton, but also at state, regional, and national levels. This award is endowed by a fund created by friends, colleagues, and former students upon Lamb’s retirement in 1994.
