Overview
Lacrosse - Girls 2nd Team
Brooks girls’ lacrosse is rapidly establishing a tradition of excellence in the Independent School League (ISL), one of the most competitive girls’ lacrosse leagues in the northeast.
The team's success is founded on the value of team over individual, a philosophy that can be seen on the field in the form of hustling team defense and a balanced attack. Last year's squad surrendered fewer than seven goals per game, while fifteen different players tallied goals or assists.
The high level of instruction offered, combined with the intense competition of ISL play, prepares Brooks graduates well for the college game. Recent Brooks alumnae have gone on to compete and to earn honors at top Division I and Division III schools in the Ivy League, NESCAC, and the ACC. Former Brooks players are currently on the rosters at Bowdoin, Trinity, Colby, Connecticut College, North Carolina, Virginia, and Northwestern.
In addition, student athletes are fortunate to have access to the exceptional on-campus athletic facilities at Brooks. Athletes at all levels have the opportunity to use the fully equipped weight room to improve strength and conditioning, and a fully-staffed training room is available to treat injuries big and small.
