Cabrini College head field hockey and lacrosse coach Jackie Neary added another honor to her resume on Saturday. Along with other members of Temple University's 1984 women's lacrosse team, Neary was inducted into the Temple University Athletics' Hall of Fame. The induction ceremony took place at Temple's Homecoming football game at Lincoln Financial Field on October 15.
During Neary's years with the Owls, Temple went 60-8-3 and reached the national semifinals all four years. Neary was named to the Brine/IWLCA All-America First Team following her senior season in 1986.
After falling to New Hampshire in the 1983 NCAA national semifinals, the Owls reached the NCAA final game in 1984 and toppled Maryland 6-4 to win the school's first NCAA Women's Lacrosse title.
Neary was also an assistant coach for her alma mater's women's lacrosse team from 1991-94.
Neary started the Cabrini lacrosse program in 1997 and immediately led the program to success, going 15-0 in the program's second year. Since then, Neary has amassed 195 victories and 10 Colonial States Athletic Conference crowns. She has also been named CSAC Coach of the Year five times, last earning the honor in 2010.
