This past Thursday night, the girls’ Skipper lacrosse team held to their home-field advantage by defeating Wayzata 16 to 8. This game was visibly different than past games this season. The Skippers were sharp and fast last week.
Four-year varsity returner and senior captain Maddie Hawley talked with us about her thoughts on the game. “We worked together as a team which we haven't done very well in past games...We connected our passes and really played a team game, rather than an individual game, which put us above Wayzata,” said Hawley. Hawley says that junior midfield Ellie Dulac and sophomore attack Avery Wolf were both crucial parts in last night's victory. “Ellie was a leading force on transition and Avery was leading on attack, both of them scored multiple times,” Hawley shared.
With a 6 and 4 record, the Skippers look forward to hosting Blake tonight, and hope to hand them their second loss of the season. “We will need to continue to play as a team with extra discipline and composure to dominate [each] possession of the game,” Hawley says in preparation for tonight’s game.
