Our Mission

Iron Girl Project is dedicated to honoring the memory of Alexea "Lex" Karpinski by supporting high school student athletes through the annual Alexea G. Karpinski Memorial Scholarship. Our mission is to inspire student athletes to create a lasting impact that positively influences their teammates, families, and communities. We recognize and reward those who embody Lex's spirit of grit, tenacity, and humility both on and off the field. These leaders strive to make themselves and others better every day, continuing Lex's tradition of excellence and compassion.

Lex loved sports from early childhood, eventually finding her passion for field hockey and lacrosse in the goalie position. She was also a dedicated Girl Scout and actively involved with Grow-A-Row, St. Hubert's Animal Shelter, and the Connect Club. Lex loved being around her friends and family and enjoyed exercising. In her short 17 years, she touched many lives and is deeply missed every day by her family, friends, teammates and dog, Baxter.

Our Iron Girl

Are you an Iron Girl Athlete?

We believe an “Iron Girl Athlete” lives by Lex’s core beliefs on and off the field.
