In 2005, Lindsay was honoured as the OCAA Player of the Year after batting .390 on the season, and helping lead St. Clair to its first-ever OCAA provincial championship, snapping Durham's three-season unbeaten streak. In 2006, she was part of an OCAA Silver Medal team to cap her career.  Verkoeyen also competed for the St. Clair Badminton team for two seasons. 

Academically Lindsay graduated from St. Clair's Early Childhood Education program. Lindsay's positive attitude and talent were contributing factors in the building blocks towards a successful St. Clair Softball program.
