Despite the fact that snow is still on the ground, March has begun and therefore spring sports are well underway. As usual, the girls’ lacrosse team seems to have a bright season ahead of them. There are a lot of talented freshmen joining the team this year and seven seniors to lead the way. The girls are extremely excited for the games to begin to show off how hard they’ve been working in practice.
Due to weather, the team has had to overcome unexpected obstacles resulting in indoor and even cancelled practices. Senior Riley Brennan expressed her frustration: “Even though the spring season is the shortest, it’s definitely the most difficult to schedule and plan because of the unpredictability of the weather and the effect it has on field conditions.” The girls are anxious to get outside and practice on an actual field, but they have to work with what they have for the time being. The team has been practicing and playing scrimmages on the weekends to get in some extra time on a turf field.
Senior captain Laura Nagg expresses her excitement for the season: “This year we have a strong team and new, fresh skills. Although the weather has gotten off to a rough start, I am excited to see what the season has in store and know it’s going to be a lot of fun!”
As of now, it is hard to predict what the season will look like for the Lady Lions, but the team is hopeful and optimistic that their season will be full of success.
