Marissa's 05/08/07 Lacrosse Game

In the short time that Marissa was in this game against Spaulding HS, she scored 3 of the teams goals, winning 12 to 5. It was her 16th goal in two weeks, bringing her total for the season to 25 - just an amazing performance. It was her 16th goal in two weeks, bringing her total for the season to 25 - just an amazing performance.
As one of the captains of the team this year, she has racked up the most goals of anyone through her aggressive play and keen sense for the goalie's weakness as she storms the goal. She's a sight to behold on the move! Just feed her, and then get out of the way! Great job, Marissa!
Unfortunately because of work, this was the first game I have been able to make this year. And the season is just about over! Life's too short to miss this important stuff. I'm thrilled that I could be there to watch her play. Realizing this, I made sure I came to Weds. 05/09 game against Bow as well. I posted some pictures of that game as well. She scored 3 of the teams 4 goals, though they lost 14 to 4. Tough team and a tough game.

Weather was in upper 70s and just perfect for the game.

The scramble is on!
