Boston College head coach Acacia Walker-Weinstein has built nearly every possible combination of championship-caliber rosters over the past decade. She was part of programs that won conference titles and national crowns while an assistant coach, and she hoisted trophies at the national and international level before finally building the Eagles into a constant presence atop the women's lacrosse elite. Her accomplishments extended from defunct lacrosse-specific conferences to the biggest power brands in college sports, and her gold medals were literal and figurative during the sport's national participation explosion.
Her accomplishments require little hyperbole, but sitting at the podium was individually incomparable to any other season or moment in her own personal history.
