Carolyn Poulos

Treasurer

Carolyn’s love for Australian Rules Football is one for the books. She used to watch the game back in the 80s when ESPN broadcast games in the United States. When Carolyn found out both of her daughters wanted to play the game, her enthusiasm couldn’t be contained. Carolyn is no stranger to founding women’s sports teams either. She and her two sisters started one of the first all-women’s ice hockey teams in Pittsburgh back in the 1970s. She is a founding member of the Tigers and current treasurer.

Tami Meis

Club Liaison

Tami comes from a competitive, athletic background mostly consisting of volleyball. Her height, athleticism and desire to compete translate well to Australian rules football. She is a devoted teammate who isn’t afraid to take risks. Tami encompasses what it means to be a Tiger, and we are so glad she is part of our tribe.

Erin Taylor

Match Secretary

Erin kicks goals out of nowhere. On defense, she smothers the ball out of nowhere, leaving only the lash of the longest blondest ponytail on the team. But don’t let her hot pink nails deceive, as the mom of three boys and a former softball and rugby player, she is a human jungle gym at home and a physical beast on the oval. Once, she broke her right ankle so bad, the doc could barely bare the sight. She recovered, stronger than ever, and now nothing makes her squirm, including the poop from the six chickens she raises out back: Sunny, Buffy, Foxy, Goldie, Rocky, and Barbie. Erin hails from Shenandoah, Iowa, and when not kicking goals or tossing feed, you’ll find her at a PTA meeting or her boys’ soccer practice.
