    1988
Arguably the best of Temple University's three NCAA Women's Lacrosse Champions under Hall of Fame coach Tina Sloan Green, the 1988 squad is the only undefeated team in Owl history.  Led by six All-America selections – Denise Bourassa, Gail Cummings, Kelly Grim, Barb Hick, Kim Lambdin and Mandee Moore – the 1988 Owls posted a 19-0 won-loss record which culminated in a 15-7 win over Penn State in the NCAA title game.

Cummings, Lambdin and Moore have been inducted into Temple's Athletics Hall of Fame as individuals as has Aamina Thornton, a member of the team and a 1990 All-America selection.  Cummings, who set school-records that season for goals (94), assists (32) and points (126), is Temple's career record-holder for points (378), goals (289) and assists (89).  Lambdin is seventh on TU's all-time scoring (206 pts) and goals (171) list (206 pts). Goalkeeper Jill Maple recorded 223 saves in 1988, her best season as an Owl and currently ranks third on TU's single season save list. Cummings and Moore have also joined Green as inductees into the US Lacrosse Hall of Fame.
