UMass Connections ---- Travis Tripucka Lacrosse

UMass freshman Lacrosse player Travis Tripucka is the nephew of former UMass QB Mark Tripucka.

Mark Tripucka was with the Football team from 1970-1974. My collection of UMass game programs starts in 1976, so I don't have any images of him.

Mark Tripucka's time as QB overlapped the career of Peil Pennington, who was one of the most prolific passers in UMass History. Tripucka was the starter in in 1974. He went 60-145 817 yards and 6 TDs. Mark lettered in 1971, 1972 and 1974.
