In 2005, Bowers' Hornets turned in their most successful season in 10 years of intercollegiate women's lacrosse. SU finished the year with an 11-5 overall record and after wins over Ferrum, Christopher Newport and Methodist in the USA South Tournament, won the program's first ever USA South Conference championship.
