At first glance, Julianna Shearer is the opposite of intimidating. The junior attacker from Westminster, Maryland stands just 5-foot-3, an easy player to overlook for opponents.

“When you see her, you wouldn’t expect what you get from her on the field,” women’s lacrosse head coach Meredith Black said.

Shearer is experiencing a breakout season for the Golden Eagles. She leads the team with 24 goals, good for fifth in the BIG EAST, and is four shy of setting Marquette’s single-season record.
