A month since taking over at the helm of the same Oregon lacrosse program she played with, Jessica Drummond is still wrapping her head around that fact.
In the weeks since, she's hired an assistant coach, and hit the road recruiting, and took the Ducks on an international tour to Spain, Portugal and Morocco. Still, the thrill of returning to her alma mater hasn't subsided.
"I still feel like I'm in a dream," Drummond said Thursday from Vermont, where she spent the last seven seasons as an assistant, and to which she had finally returned for the first time since taking over the Ducks.
