This season for girls lacrosse has already started with tryouts that was hosted on March 20 to 25, in all hopes that this year would be different than last year. Last year’s season, the girls lacrosse team was prepared for the season but had unfortunate injuries they had struggled at little to win. “[They] had a strong roster, and both individual players and the team had grown over the years, but [they] had injuries and other setbacks that [she] believe robbed [them] of [their] full potential.” explained coach Jessica Leggett.

Although they have lost many good players from last year, they have gained many. With the big amount of newbies on the team this year, this will be an exciting year for them. There are about 30 to 40 members on the team.

The girls lacrosse team has set a goal for themselves to stay motivated and focused for the rest of the season so they can improve to the best they can. Leggett o also stated that “there [were] many little changes and tweaks, and some bigger changes that [the] team will have this year.  In the off season both [herself] and [her] players have been doing work to contribute more of [themselves] to the team’s success, and [she’s] really excited to see what comes out of that”. They have made many improvements to the team off and current in season.

Their first game would be on Monday April 3, 2017 against Medford from 4:00 to 5:30. As many players and the coaches have said, lacrosse is a really fun sport and if you have interest it’s never too late. The newest captains on the team are Victoria Moore and René Spadafora.

With new goals and new players, the coach is more than certain the team has many wins coming in Theo way for the rest of the season.
