Good morning, and welcome to Statwatch, our look at the statistical side of girls’ scholastic lacrosse nationwide.
Our Stat of the Week is the ascendancy of Darien (Conn.) head coach Lisa Lindley into the 500-win club. The milestone was achieved on Tuesday with a 17-7 win at Massapequa (N.Y.). She become only the fifth known coach with 500 wins in the recorded history of scholastic girls’ lacrosse, behind Kathy Jenkins, Angela Tammaro, Deanna Knobloch, and Phyllis Kilgour.
It’s a rarefied level of coaching, and one which is well-deserved for the coach of the current No. 1 team in the nation.

To make this list an even more complete one, I encourage you to adopt the easy-to-use MaxPreps.com platform, and we encourage you to get your fellow teams to enter their information there as well as whichever is your local news site, so that we can aim for as complete a statistical picture of the country as possible.
