Flashback 100: Scane’s Record-Setting Lacrosse Run Began at Cranbrook Kingswood
May 16, 2025
A four-year varsity standout at Bloomfield Hills Cranbrook Kingswood, Izzy Scane rewrote the MHSAA record book for her sport while leading the Cranes to four MHSAA Finals appearances and two championships from 2015-18.
She scored at least three goals in all four of those title-deciding games, with seven goals in a thrilling 17-16 double-overtime win over East Grand Rapids in the 2017 Division 2 Final and five goals with an assist in an 18-6 championship win over Okemos as a senior in 2018.
Her 461 career goals stood as the state record until 2024, and she still holds the record for career points with 577, combining 461 goals and 116 assists over 93 games. In total, she is listed 14 times in the MHSAA record book.
After high school, Scane starred at Northwestern University. She helped the Wildcats reach five NCAA Tournaments, with the Wildcats winning the Division I national title in 2023 and finishing runners-up in 2024. She played in national semifinals her other three seasons.
Scane’s college career also was record-setting. In 2021, she led the nation with 6.12 goals per game, scoring 98 in just 16 games — still the best goals-per-game average in NCAA history. In 2024, she broke the NCAA Division I career goals record, finishing with 376 and 483 points over 84 games. She surpassed the previous goals record of 358 set by Charlotte North and ended as the second-highest point scorer in NCAA history. She also holds multiple NCAA championship tournament records, including most career goals with 63 and most career points with 86.
Scane was named winner of the Tewaaraton Award — the top honor in college lacrosse — in both 2023 and 2024. She also earned Big Ten Attacker of the Year three times and was recognized with numerous All-America honors.
After college, she was selected first overall in the 2024 Athletes Unlimited Lacrosse college draft and played in that league until it ended after her first season. She now plays in the Women’s Lacrosse League.
