Bio

Dawn Greer Foster came to campus from William Penn High School in New Castle, Delaware in 1993, joining a fledging program that had just come off a 12-7 season in ’92. By the time she played her last game in 1996, Greer Foster left as the best goalie in Goucher field hockey history.

From her first game at Goucher, Greer Foster was the Gophers’ starting goalie, helping the team win 45 games in four seasons. Greer Fosters helped the Gophers take back-to-back CAC Championships in 1994 and 1995, as the team clinched a spot in the NCAA Tournament in both seasons.

A second-team All-CAC Selection in her freshman season of 1993, Greer Foster went on to earn All-CAC First Team accolades in 1994 and second team honors in 1993.

An All-South Regional honoree in 1995, Greer Foster’s name is still etched in history for the Goucher program to this day. In all, she still holds six different career and season records for the program. They are: shutouts in a season (12 in 1994), career shutouts (29), saves in a season (283 in 1996), career saves (801), save percentage for a season (.930 in 1994), and save percentage for a career (.890).
