th anniversary of Erbe winning the coveted Tewaaraton Award in 2005.
Since the inception of the award in 2001, the Tewaaraton Award recognizes the most outstanding player in men's and women's college lacrosse. Erbe is the only Duke women's lacrosse player to have received the award.
Erbe had a stellar career at Duke. Now enshrined in the Duke Athletics Hall of Fame, the two-time All-American led Duke to three ACC regular season titles, Duke's first ACC Championship and two NCAA Final Fours. Erbe was the first player to be named the ACC Rookie of the Year, ACC Player of the Year and ACC Tournament MVP. She currently holds the program record in all-time points scored (287) and goals (217).
After her career at Duke, Erbe continued playing for the United States national team, ultimately winning the 2009 Federation of International Lacrosse World Championship.
