Wanda Mazzamurro is one of the few four-sport athletes in Clark history. She played varsity field hockey, basketball, and softball while also competing on the club soccer team.
Maximizing the opportunities available, she not only took full advantage of them, she excelled on several levels.
A four-year field hockey goalkeeper, Mazzamurro led the Clark team to the 1982 MAIAW State Championship and she was selected to the Northeast regional field hockey squad. During the fall season, Mazzamurro also played four years of club soccer. She was instrumental in helping elevate that program from a club sport to varsity status.
On the hardwood, Mazzamurro helped the women’s basketball squad advance to back-to-back NCAA Tournament Final Fours in 1982 and 1983. Along the way, the Cougars compiled a two-year 42-14 record. Mazzamurro led Clark in assists 39 times, totaling 334 in those two seasons combined. In her four-year tenure, Mazzamurro helped Clark earn an overall 75-38 mark.
Individually, she closed her career with the school record for game assists (15), a mark that still stands today. In the spring, she headed back outdoors as a three-year member of Clark’s softball team.
At the close of her career, Mazzamurro received the Athletic Department’s M. Hazel Hughes Award, given annually to the senior female athlete who has made a significant contribution to the athletic program and whose dedication and performance have enriched the tradition of Clark Athletics.
After graduating from Clark, Mazzamurro went to New York Chiropractic College, graduating in 1989 with academic honors. Since then she has owned a private practice in Westborough, Mass.Â
Wanda resides in Westborough and has a daughter, Rachael.
