There is no better or deeper league in Division 3 women’s lacrosse than the NESCAC.
Between now and the start of the season (10 of the league’s 11 teams play openers on March 1, with Bates and new head coach Princess Zabel jumping the gun with a trip south later this month), we’ll look at some NESCAC players poised for big seasons.
We’ll start with alums from the Independent School League, 13 programs that are an annual source of talent for the NESCAC.
Here are seven women to watch this spring. Players are listed with class year, position, prep school and college.
