L A C R O S S E ng IT Leaving last year's winless season in the past, the varsity boys' lacrosse team finished strong with a 5-6 record and earned both a playoff spot and respect. In agreement with many of the players, Jr. Todd Johnson said, The biggest im- provement this year is that we actually 'play'! Other players felt that the best addition this year was their team unity. Coach Ron Cas- tagna said, Throughout the season we functioned more as a team than individuals, they were more like friends to each other. The team showed their true talent and charisma in the dou- ble overtime 5-4 win over Smoky Hill.
