Bio
As a four-year member of the women’s lacrosse team, Crusey played an instrumental role in the transition of women’s lacrosse from a club sport to a varsity sport within the CMS program. As a senior in 2003 – the lacrosse team’s first year as a varsity sport – Crusey helped put the program on the map. She led the Athenas to a 10-3 record and earned first team All-Region honors in the process. In 2003, Crusey led the team in goals (24), assists (7) and shooting percentage (45). As a vocal and emotional leader of the team, Crusey was chosen as the team captain by her peers.
