Caitlin McDonough is the 2019 Bernie Ward Commitment Award recipient. Caitlin is a two-year varsity lacrosse player and a three-season athlete. Caitlin showed strong leadership qualities early on as she began her varsity career. As a senior, she helped lead the defensive unit and transitioned into a top midfielder.
