The 1984 State Championship Field Hockey Team

This team has the distinction of being the only state champion field hockey squad in school history.

In a November 1984 finals matchup, senior powerhouse Lynn Iannotta hammered home the overtime game-winner in a 1-0 victory over Lackawanna Trail. Of the victory, a Sunday Call-Chronicle reporter said, “The Cinderella slipper fit and Moravian Academy is wearing its PIAA Class AA State Championship field hockey crown regally ... Little Moravian Academy—with all of 216 students, 110 of them girls—may play an independent schedule and keep its caliber of field hockey a secret for most of the season, but now District 11 and the entire state know just how good the Lions are.”
