COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT The women's lacrosse program has consistently given back to the community. The Terriers have hosted a game each of the last four seasons to benefit the Friends of Jaclyn, an organization that works to better the quality of life for children battling pediatric brain tumors and helps fund research. In the past two seasons, BU participated in the Catamount Classic-Lacrosse for a Cure tournament which was an all-day tournament with all proceeds being donated to cancer research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. TRADITION BU has won six America East titles in eight years and nine in program history. Six Terriers have earned America East Player of the Year honors while BU has also had six players named Rookie of the Year. BU has been strong at home under Liz Robertshaw, as the Terriers have posted a 39-13 mark at Nickerson Field over the last seven seasons. HEAD COACH LIZ ROBERTSHAW The Terriers have won four conference championships in the past six seasons Robertshaw has been at the helm. BU also advanced to the NCAA Tournament each of those four seasons, with one trip to the NCAA quarterfinals. Robertshaw is 32-4 against America East competition and was the 2009 AE Coach of the Year.
