Girls Lacrosse

  • The foundation of Mercersburg girls lacrosse is the development of the physical and mental game of each athlete, focusing on building athleticism, great stickwork, competitive composure, and winning attitudes. 
  • This foundation has provided the base for a program that, in recent seasons, has reached the highest level of play and accomplishments in team history.     
  • The offseason is prime time for Storm lacrosse players to develop their athleticism and their game. Many varsity players compete on club teams, and a number of athletes play other sports in the fall and winter while also playing in 3v3 and 5v5 tournaments, clinics, and showcases.
  • In the 2025-2026 school year, girls lacrosse will gain a "second season" as a winter PGA option.  In the winter, players will work daily with our strength and conditioning coach as well as Coach Kristin Ahlgren. The team will also compete in a winter league.

The girls lacrosse team changed the way I am as a teammate and as a person. Under the amazing coaching staff I became more caring and hardworking, as well as learning how to be a leader on and off the field!

Madi Norris '21

The women's lacrosse team was a fundamental aspect of my time at Mercersburg, and it helped me develop the skills I value most in myself today—dedication, commitment, and leadership. I cherish the friendships I built with my teammates and will always look back on my time with the team as one of the most impactful and transformative experiences of my life.

Caroline Kranich '20

I never would have been able to accomplish all that I did in college lacrosse without the foundation laid by the girls lacrosse program and specifically Coach Ahlgren. She gave me the confidence to believe I could play at the collegiate level and then helped make that a reality by coaching me step-by-step through the entire recruiting process. The program helped me develop the skills, grit, and mindset I needed to succeed, while instilling in me the importance of hard work, hustle, and being a good teammate. What makes the program truly special is the sense of unity and buy-in from every player. Everyone is committed to each other, creating a tight-knit team that truly feels like a family.

The program trains and competes on Regents’ Field, an expansive synthetic-turf facility completed in 2009, re-surfaced in 2024, and designated for primary use by female sports teams at Mercersburg. An adjacent natural-grass field serves as a secondary training option. In the winter, the team practices in the Hale Field House.
