Lynn Anne Bolton was a multi-sport athlete at Ithaca in the mid-1990s in field hockey and swimming & diving. In her two sports, Bolton competed under the tutelage of Hall of Fame coaches Doris Kostrinsky in field hockey and
Paula Miller in the pool.
As a goalie with the field hockey program, Bolton played on four NCAA Tournament teams, as the Bombers posted 46 victories from 1992 to 1995. She was named Third-Team All-American by the CFHCA during her junior and senior seasons, as well as a First-Team North Atlantic All-Region performer.
Bolton quickly progressed to the Bombers' top net minder by her junior season and remained in cage until her graduation. She made 255 saves as a junior with six shutouts, a 1.26 goals against average and .911 save percentage.
Bolton followed that up with a stellar senior campaign with a paltry 0.93 GAA and 11 shutouts in over 1,400 minutes played.
Bolton still owns the program's best save percentage of .910 and is third all-time in goals against average at 1.09, as she allowed just 44 goals in nearly 2,900 minutes of action.
Her 18 career shutouts rank within the top five in school history, while her 447 career saves are within the top 10.
She lettered two seasons on the swimming & diving team.
