Congratulations to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish girls’ lacrosse team! This junior division (age 13-14) recreational league team, composed primarily of students in the Marriotts Ridge High School district, reigned undefeated during regular season and playoffs. Coach Brian Stephens credits the girls’ responsiveness to himself and the two assistant coaches, Kellie Riley and Jen Lash, both rising seniors at MRHS. Also key to their championship win, he explains, were aggressive double-teaming defense, strong goal-tending, draw control, and balanced scoring.

Team members include Ashlyn Altieri, Gabriella Barker, Rebecca Biegel, Megan Blodgett, Victoria Chahanovich, Allison D’Amato, Brianna Dick, Julie Dixon, Morgan Jones, Amanda Lash, Carey McDonald, Emily Roberts, Rachel Rusonis, Madison Stephens, Samantha Terrill, Theresa Tran, Grace Trimble, Emily Wolf, and Jessica Yingling.

Stephens points out that some of these players could represent MRHS lacrosse for the next four years. What a coup for our local high school!
