The CHS Athletic Department is thrilled to welcome Coach Jessica Powers as our new Girls Varsity Lacrosse coach. 

Coach Jessica Powers

Powers is no stranger to CHS, graduating a proud Bulldog in 2018. During her time as a student here, she was a four-year varsity lacrosse player, serving as captain her senior season. She joined the CHS Girls Lacrosse coaching staff as an assistant last spring and has served as Bulldog JV Girls Basketball coach for the past two seasons.

Powers is an educator for her "day job" as well, teaching at the Galvin Middle School for two years before moving on to teach History at Stoughton High School. 

Bulldog Nation is thrilled to have Coach Powers taking the lead role in the Girls Lax program.  She brings with her a love of the game and a passion for coaching.  She is a great role model for all of our team members. 

Coach Powers had this two say upon her official appointment-

"I am honored and excited to be the Varsity Girls Lacrosse coach at Canton High School. This program has a special place in my heart from my experiences as a player, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to lead this team as head coach. I look forward to working with the players and to continue building CHS Girls Lacrosse as a strong, successful program. Go Bulldogs!"
