Lycoming College

The first athlete in school history to earn first-team all-conference honors in two sports in the same year in 2015-16, it's no surprise the Meghenn Jackson '17 also earned the 2016 Lycoming College Most Outstanding Female Athlete award.
 
Jackson, who became the first women's lacrosse player in program history to earn MAC Commonwealth Offensive Player of the Year honors in 2016, was the first player in school history to reach 100 points in a season, finishing the year with a school-record tying 80 goals and 33 assists, which are third in school history, for 113 points.
 
The second-team all-region selection finished with the league lead in goals (4.71), assists (1.94) and points (6.65) per game, and was fifth in the nation in goals per game and third in points per game. She was just as good in MAC Commonwealth play, averaging league-best marks of 4.38 goals and 5.50 points per game.
 
The Arnold, Md., native also set the school record with six career MAC Commonwealth Offensive Player of the Week awards, as she won three as a senior to go with three from her junior year, when she also led MAC Commonwealth in goals and points in 2015.
 
In just two years in the women's lacrosse program, Jackson finished her career fifth in school history with 193 points, fifth with 148 goals and sixth with 47 assists, earning herself a chance to play in the IWLCA North/South game.

Despite only playing a season and a half with the soccer team due to injuries her junior year, Jackson made quite the impact when she emerged healthy in 2015, tying the then school-record for goals in a season (15) and finishing second in the MAC Commonwealth in goals (.833) and points (2.06) and fourth in assists per game (.389). A 2015 Academic All-MAC selection in soccer, she finished the 2015 season fourth in school history with 37 points (15 goals, seven assists).
 
While playing in just 27 games with the Warriors, she finished her career 10th in school history with 16 career goals and 40 career points.
 
Jackson began her collegiate career at Anne Arundel Community College, where she earned two All-American honors in lacrosse and All-American honors in soccer as a sophomore.
