Rutgers Athletics Hall of Fame
One of the most versatile and gifted female athletes ever to attend Rutgers, Heather Jones (1990-95) was a two-sport standout in field hockey and lacrosse. At the conclusion of her outstanding dual sport career, Jones was the all-time leading scorer for the Scarlet Knights in both field hockey and lacrosse following her career and had amassed seven All-America honors between the two sports. She began her athletic career by earning Atlantic-10 Freshman of the Year honors in field hockey following the 1990 season. Jones was a two-time Honorable Mention All-American (1990, 1992) selection in field hockey and a three-time All-Conference pick. She graduated as the all-time leading scorer in Rutgers field hockey history with 111 points, and was named a First Team All-American in 1993. On the lacrosse field, Jones was a two-time All-Region selection and a four-time All-America choice. At the time of her induction, she held the single-season record for most goals scored in a season with 60 and was ranked third on the all-time lacrosse points list.
