On Monday, January 29th, girls lacrosse tryouts will be taking place from 3:30- 5:30 pm. You will need cleats, a stick, goggles, and water. In order to tryout you need to have an updated and current physical turned in to the athletic trainers by January 19th. All girls will need to wear black shorts, black or white socks, a white shirt, and a pinny (if you have one). Tryouts will take place at the high school field Monday- Wednesday. We will be running the mile on the second day of tryouts, the goal is to try and run your mile under 8 minutes although it is not a requirement to make the team.
We will begin practices on Thursday, February 1st after cuts are made. We will be practicing Monday- Friday at 3:30 until 5:30. Our first game is scheduled for Wednesday, February 21st at Windermere High school. The varsity game is scheduled for 6 pm because there is no jv team. This game is followed by many throughout the the end of February, the whole month of March, (not including spring break) and 2 weeks into April. Senior night is on Friday, April 13th at 7 pm.
Coming into the season there are lots of important goals that we are hoping to achieve that not only involve winning as many games as possible, but also working together as one team to develop a positive mental attitude and good sportsmanship. As a senior of the lacrosse team it is important for me and all the other seniors to be role models for the younger girls on the team. “This year I hope to improve my skills and bring my best attitude and effort to all practices and games,” said senior Rylie Walker.
