Lindsay Griffith begins her third season on head coach Carol Knerr’s staff after a decorated four-year career at NESCAC rival Tufts University. Starting all 15 games as a senior, she served as one of the team’s co-captains en route to team MVP honors.

A two-time Longstreth/NFHCA All-Region honoree, she was named to the All-NESCAC second team after leading the Jumbos in scoring in 2011, while also garnering an invitation to the prestigious NFHCA Senior All-Star game. Helping Tufts to a 66-11 overall mark during the course of her four seasons, the Jumbos earned three NCAA Championship berths, reaching the national semifinal in 2009 after falling in double-overtime of the 2008 national championship game against Bowdoin.

Earning a bachelor’s degree in english with a minor in communications and media studies from Tufts in May of 2012, Griffith is also pursuing a master’s degree in higher education administration from the University of Massachusetts.
