'''Jesse Hubbard''' (born September 18, 1975) is a former professional [[lacrosse]] player who played professional [[box lacrosse]] in the [[National Lacrosse League]] (NLL) and professional [[field lacrosse]] in the [[Major League Lacrosse]] (MLL).

==Background==
Hubbard starred as a member of the [[Princeton Tigers men's lacrosse]] team from 1995 through 1998, where he earned Ivy League Player of the Year, Ivy League Rookie of the Year, three [[All-American]] recognitions from the [[United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association]] (USILA), four [[Ivy League]] championships, and three national championships.  He holds Princeton's lacrosse scoring records for both career and single-season goals.  In high school, he had set the [[Interstate Athletic Conference]] (IAC) scoring record, while playing for [[St. Albans School (Washington, D.C.)|St. Albans School]] and becoming ''[[The Washington Post]]'' boys' lacrosse player of the year.

As a professional, he was the MLL's leading goal scorer for its first three seasons and its all-time goal leader as recently as the [[2010 MLL season]]. His 54 goals in [[2002 MLL season|2002]] continue to be a league single-season record.  He is a five-time [[Major League Lacrosse All-Star Game|Major League Lacrosse All-Star]].  In August 2010, he was selected to the MLL 10th Anniversary team.  He has represented Team USA in the [[World Lacrosse Championships]] and is an ambassador of the sport both through service with [[Warrior Sports]] and his own annual youth camps.

Hubbard got his first [[lacrosse stick]] when he was 11 or 12 years old.<ref name=LANP/> Hubbard played middle and high school lacrosse at [[St. Albans School (Washington, D.C.)]].,<ref name=JHI50>{{cite web|url=http://www.ivy50.com/story.aspx?sid=10/27/2006|title=Jesse Hubbard|access-date=2010-08-23|author=Crawford, E.
