The La Salle women's lacrosse team and its relationship with eight-year old Rebecca Poulton was recently recognized in a feature on the Big Ten Network.

Becca was diagnosed with a brain tumor called medullblastoma four years ago at the age of four. The Explorers adopted Becca as an honorary team member this past spring through the Friends of Jaclyn Organization, inspired by pediatric brain tumor survivor Jaclyn Murphy.

To view the feature on the Jaclyn and her relationship with the Northwestern women's lacrosse team, please see the video below. For more information on pediatric brain tumors and the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation, visit www.friendsofjaclyn.org.
