The first thing Salisbury women's lacrosse coach Jim Nestor tells you about his top scorer, Sue Ackermann, is how smart she is. Ackermann, a Liberty graduate, has the resume to back that up - on the field and in the classroom. Known as an attacker with an ability to read defenses, the senior has led the No. 2 Sea Gulls in scoring for two years. She carries a 3.9 grade point average, majoring in exercise science. In May, she will receive Salisbury's Female Scholar Athlete of the Year award.
