Ingrid Boyum

American hero

Ingrid Boyum epitomized the story of Team One, the first women's box lacrosse team in U.S. national team history. A former star at Navy, Boyum had spent most of her post-graduation time serving as an officer in the U.S. Navy. Her love of lacrosse never waned. She jumped at the chance to be a pioneer. The rest was history, as she led the U.S. to a historic championship.
