A 1959 graduate of St. Lawrence University, Hall of Famer Jackie Pitts played club lacrosse for the Philadelphia Bandits and the Philadelphia Women's Lacrosse Association. She was a member of the U.S. Women’s Team and U.S. Reserve Team from 1964-74. She later served as the head coach of the U.S. women’s squad from 1979-87, winning the first World Cup in 1982. Pitts' lacrosse experience spans the entire spectrum of the sport: player, coach, educator, camp director, administrator and pioneer of women's lacrosse in other countries. She contributed to the growth of women's lacrosse in Japan and Czechoslovakia.
