FloridaLacrosseNews.com recently caught up with Jane Bunn (2012), Creekside High School’s Goalkeeper (2011 save stats: 61% 152/251, free position saves: 83% 29/35) and a member of XTeam 2012 Black.  We discussed her recent commitment to St. Anselm College in New Hampshire and her thoughts on the upcoming spring high school lacrosse season:
