Maddy Graves

It did not take long for Maddy Graves, ‘19, to make a name for herself on the Washington and Lee women’s lacrosse team. Through her first ten games as a General, Graves leads the team in goals with 17 (the next highest goal scorer, Olivia Sisson, ‘17, has 12) and has netted exactly half of her shots. She has scored multiple goals in six of the team’s matches this season and is averaging three goals per contest in ODAC play. The Phi sat down with Graves to talk about her success on the field and her life off of it.
