Jenna Baverman, a captain of the UMBC women's lacrosse team, also played with the under-19 Israeli lacrosse team and for Israel in the Women's World Cup in 2017 -- a feat she could repeat in two years.
Jmore recently spoke with Baverman, a senior, about some of her thoughts on lacrosse and playing with the Israeli team.
Jmore: When did you start playing lacrosse?
Baverman: I first started playing probably at the end of seventh grade into eighth grade. I played softball until I decided it was a bit too slow for me. I was at Beth Tfiloh [Dahan Community School], and I … just decided to look for a different experience. I fell in love with Roland Park [Country School] and had such a great academic and athletic career there.
