Jonathan Law’s boys lacrosse team is excited about the upcoming season.
They have set some goals and high expectations for this upcoming season and are hoping to achieve those goals.
The boys lacrosse captains this year are Austin Danville, Matthew Evanko, and Sean Theisen who is injured for the season.
“It’s sad that it’s my senior year, but this hopefully isn’t the end of my lacrosse season; hopefully, I will be playing next year in college,“ Evanko said.
Head coach Mr. Forget is as excited as the boys for this upcoming season as well. Although there are still some things they need to work on as a team, he believes this will be a successful season all around.
“We need to expand our roster, we are also in need of a goalie and some defense,” Forget said.
This year, the team’s goals are to beat Foran and to also make it to the playoffs like they did last year.
“We made the playoffs last season for the first time in team history, so there isn’t much I would want to change,” Forget said.
Some of the boys have personal goals for themselves.
“My personal goal this year is is to either go All-State or All -SCC,” Danville said.
Junior Zachary Passaro has also set some personal goals for the season that he plans on achieving.
“My personal goals are to help my teammates get better and to get better at shooting,” Passaro said.
Some freshman have been shining bright so far this season, including Sebastian Davis and Luke Henrichson.
“It feels great to be a freshman on the varsity team,” Davis said. “All the hype from the upperclassmen and coaches feels great.”
The lacrosse players and coaches love the fast-paced game. Not only is it fast-paced game, but it enjoyable to watch.
The next boys lacrosse game takes place on Tuesday, April 2, at Jonathan Law against Norwich Tech-Windham Tech at 6:00.
