When Amber Lambeth was in fourth grade, she told her mom she wanted to play lacrosse.
At first, Lambeth’s mom didn’t know anything about the sport. But soon Lambeth received two lacrosse sticks from her mom’s best friend, who played lacrosse in college. Her mom quickly went from not knowing what lacrosse was to becoming an essential part of her game.
“I would play in the house with my sister,” the sophomore midfielder said. “And I would make my mom come outside with me and play.”
Lambeth’s mom passed away at the end of her senior year at Souderton Area High School, right before graduation.
