GameBreaker Lacrosse is excited to announce Sarah Hughes as Director of our girls' Sonoma State Camp. Along with a successful coaching resume, Hughes brings All-American credentials and a wealth of United States National Team experience to GameBreaker's staff.
Most recently, Sarah spent two years as an assistant coach for NCAA powerhouse Stanford University. With her help, the 2006 Stanford Women's Lacrosse Team became the first team hailing from west of the Mississippi to break into the 16-team, NCAA Championships. Hughes joined the Cardinal staff after serving two seasons as the top assistant at Albany.
The Broomall, PA native began her coaching career after a highly distinguished career as a goalkeeper at Dartmouth College. Hughes was a four-year starter for the Big Green from 1999-2002, earning Brine/IWLCA All-American honors following the 2000 and 2001 seasons. Hughes also garnered All-Ivy League recognition in 2000 and 2001, and set a Dartmouth program record with 550 career saves. She also set the program single-game mark for saves in her collegiate debut, saving 22 shots against Maryland on March 20, 1999. Hughes led Dartmouth to three Ivy League titles and three straight NCAA Tournament appearances during her time in Hanover, and helped the Big Green to a No. 2 national ranking in 2001.
Following her collegiate career, she was selected in the first Women's Professional Lacrosse Draft in 2002, and was inducted into Dartmouth College's "Wearers of the Green" in 2004.
Hughes has been part of the United States National Team program since 2000, when she debuted with the U.S. Developmental Team. She is currently a goalkeeper for the U.S. Women's Lacrosse Elite Team.
Hughes has been very active on the camps and clinics circuit as well, instructing at over 30 different camps and clinics during her career, including the University of Maryland and Dartmouth Elite Camps. She was a guest speaker at the U.S. Lacrosse National Convention in January 2004, and has also served as a volunteer on the ethics committee for the IWLCA. |
