WASHINGTON - The Georgetown University women's lacrosse squad has announced its captains for the 2015 season. Seniors Mollie Caputo (Manlius , N.Y./Fayetteville-Manlius), Adrianne Devine (Loudonville, N.Y./Shaker), Sammy Giordano (Ridgewood, N.J./Ridgewood) and Caroline Tarzian (Garden City, N.Y./Garden City) were selected by their coaches and peers to lead the squad during the upcoming year.

As a junior, Caputo appeared in 13 games with four goals and one assist for five points to her credit. In her career, she has tallied seven goals and two assists as well as six ground balls, two draw controls and three caused turnovers.
