US Lacrosse WCLA Academic All-American List

We are so proud of our 3 Juniors who earned such wonderful recognition:

Maggie Durci (Shreveport, LA/Caddo Magnet HS)
Rebecca Lambert (Kenner, LA/Mount Carmel Academy)
Reese Gassie (Leonardtown, MD/Leonardtown HS)

All 3 of these ladies will be coming back to the program for their senior year. We will be looking forward to them working to make the Academic AA list yet again along with a few more teammates!

We would also like to thank the LSU Reveille for publishing their article on our championship run:

Any chance you ladies get varsity status any time soon?

There has been growing interest within the "powers that be" at LSU over the last 3 seasons, even more so this month after having proven that winning in women's lacrosse takes place at LSU.

While there are many positives with adding women's lacrosse to the LSU Varisty Sports Family, there is a considerable amount of funding necessary to:
field a roster of 35-55 student-athletes, pay a quality coaching staff, order uniforms/apparel/equipment, & coordinate the travel to D1 opponents that are almost all located in the B1G, ACC, & along the rest of the East Coast.

The good news is that LSU already have a terrific soccer facility that can easily be turned into a dual-use sports facility that soccer & lacrosse can share for many years!

We certainly hope that one day our foundation of current successes leads to such a jump for varsity level women's lacrosse at LSU!
