The senior attack is off to a great start, scoring 26 goals and winning 27 draw controls for the Pioneers (5-0-1 as of April 19). As a sophomore, Clark was a first team All-American, All-Central League and All-Main Line girls’ lacrosse selection, and Conestoga won the District 1 3A championship. In the fall, she will be headed to the University of Virginia, where she will play lacrosse. Conestoga girls lacrosse coach Amy Orcutt said, “Rachel is one of the most dedicated and hard-working players I have ever coached. She is constantly playing lacrosse and working on improving her game. She has an incredibly quick first step and her ability to change direction on point makes her difficult to defend. Rachel’s quick hands, quick release and insanely accurate shot make it hard for any goalie to see the all coming out of her stick. It has been such a joy seeing Rachel grow as a player, person and leader on and off the field over the last four years.”
