WASHINGTON, DC - Chrissy Lombard has been named head coach for women's lacrosse at The George Washington University, Senior Associate Director of Athletics Mary Jo Warner has announced.
Lombard will be responsible for all aspects of the lacrosse program which enters its fourth season as a varsity program in the spring of 2005. Lombard becomes just the second head coach for lacrosse at GW. She replaces Jennifer Morris who resigned to pursue other interests.
Lombard has been the assistant coach for GW lacrosse since the program's inception in 2002. Lombard came to GW after an outstanding playing career as an All-America attack player for Boston University from 1998-2001.
