Sandy Stockl started the girls’ lacrosse program at Washington Township High School in Gloucester County in South Jersey back in 1994. She spent 31 years as the head coach until deciding to retire after the 2024 season – she will still be working at the school as a counselor. She won 300 games at the helm of the program and her coaching career came after an elite playing career, which saw her win three Division III National Championships as a goalie at TCNJ (then Trenton State College).

In Episode #222 of “1-on-1 with Matt Leon,” Matt welcomes Stockl in studio to look back on her career. They discuss why this was the right time to step away, look back at what it was like to start the program back in 1994, reflect on her outstanding playing career and much more.
