Lacrosse Champions

We went into the post season tournament undefeated, which far exceeded our expectations for the year.  Having rolled over many of our opponents, especially early in the season I willl admit that I was struggling to develop a zeal for the game. The post season tournament definitely changed that.  

We played Bishop Kelly in the finals.  This was a team that had provided us the most competition throughout the season.  We found ourselves trailing most of the game, a position our boys had not experienced.  We would come within two and then in the final quarter we went down by 3.  I was pretty sure at that moment it was over.  However, the boys didn't give up and boom, boom, boom, we tied the game by the final buzzer.  It was crazy.  In double overtime, we finally scored winning the championship! 

Most importantly, Jax loves the game.  He's finally found something besides football that he really enjoys.
