For the first time in Priory history, we have a girl’s lacrosse team. This is sophomore Anna Barton’s (10) seventh year playing lacrosse and this year, she decided to bring lacrosse to the community, because she “wanted people to experience the joy she has playing the sport.” The team this year is made up of only three experienced players, along with almost thirty soccer, basketball, and volleyball players, as well as runners. Cate Tomlinson (10) is one of the experienced players, and she believes that “Since I grew up playing it, I am excited to get back into it.” The new lacrosse team was also a great opportunity for new players like Ada Fathers (9) to try out a new sport. She joined because she “heard from [her] friends that lacrosse is super interesting and [she] always felt special to be able to be part of the Priory history.”
Even though the season started out rough, the girls lacrosse team was able to bounce back and take their first win in less than 20 days. To most team members, it was a memorable moment. Anna said, “Everyone played awesome and I was really glad to see all the smiling faces.” Ada agrees and adds on that “It is a cool experience to be part of Priory’s first ever win.” After their first victory, the team also spent a night at Monterey Bay, where they bonded and took their next two wins. Overall, the team is going through an extremely successful first season as they are currently on their 6th winning streak. What a way to make history!
1. Leyla Gillet (9) starts off practice with a small warm up. Putting her arm in position, she is ready to strike the ball to her partner. 2.Maya Blevins (9) runs down the field as she gets ready to catch the ball thrown by her teammates. As the opponents press on, she stays composed and uses her skills to get past them. 3. Casey Walsh (10) checks her opponent’s stick as they fight for control over the ball. She does not give up as she runs towards the goal!
