Trevor Newquist – Men's Soccer
Newquist played for the Gaels from 2009-12 and started all four seasons on the team's backline. Despite his role as a defender, Trevor led the team in scoring as a freshman and senior and finished among the program's top-10 in goals and points.
 
In his junior season, he helped the Gaels reach the NCAA Tournament and scored two goals in the Round of 16 to push Saint Mary's into the NCAA Tournament quarterfinals for the first time in program history.
 
As a senior, Trevor was named West Coast Conference Defender of the Year and was also named to the conference's First Team. During his time at Saint Mary's, the Gaels went 40-25-16 and were the most successful class in school history. 
 
Louella Tomlinson – Women's Basketball
Tomlinson's name is scattered across the women's basketball record books and she still sits atop the stats in multiple categories nine years after graduating. Tomlinson began her career in 2007 and graduated in 2011.
 
The two-time West Coast Conference Defender of the Year is tied for first all-time in NCAA Division I in career triple doubles with seven. She is also second all-time in the country in career blocks (663), fourth in career blocks per game (5.3), and fifth all-time for blocks in a single season (195 – set her senior year).
 
Tomlinson also holds the top four spots for blocks in a single season at Saint Mary's and broke the NCAA record her freshman year with, denying 156 shots.
 
Currently, Tomlinson is still playing professionally in Australia, after spending early parts of her playing career in Europe.
