Liz Jones, Phoenixville Girls Lacrosse

Phoenixville Area High School has had numerous outstanding girls lacrosse players throughout the years in the old Ches-Mont League and current Pioneer Athletic Conference.
This year’s Phantom big star is senior attack/midfielder Liz Jones, who scored her 200th career goal in a 17-14 setback to Methacton April 17 on the Phoenixville field.
Jones has been a four-year varsity player for Phoenixville and head coach Jen Foresta. She tallied six goals in the game against the Warriors after starting the day needing just two to reach the coveted milestone.
The game was stopped and Jones received congratulations from her teammates as well as the game ball for a keepsake of the special feat.
Jones credited her teammates with making good passes to her throughout her career that allowed her to become such a prolific scorer. She also acknowledged the coaching of Phoenixville graduates Foresta and assistant coach Aamina Thornton for advice on how to best utilize her skills on the field.
Jones’ most productive season came during her sophomore year when she tallied 87 goals.
