Girls Varsity

Our Girls Varsity Program was created in 2023 by veteran players Zizi Azar, Bennett Childs, and Kendall Bauman as they helped to recruit a team of fellow students interested in trying a new sport. This team went on to demonstrate a level of dedication and commitment on and off the field, and under the leadership of our then Head Coach Cecilia Patten and Assistant Coach Jordan Helfrich, the team finished their first season with a district semifinal appearance.

In 2025, Coach Jordan Helfrich and Assistant Coach Maddy Willis led the team to its first San Antonio district championship AND its first Division III State Championship title.

Girls Lacrosse is one of the fastest growing sports in Texas as well as across the nation. Today, the Alamo Heights Lacrosse Club stands as one of San Antonio’s premier programs and a top statewide contender in Texas lacrosse for both boys and girls.
