Happy April!
The beginning of April is a great time for our team...especially Coach. Her birthday happens to be April Fool's Day, and so every year we conjure up some crazy prank, "borrow" the keys from our assistant, grab the team after practice, and voila!....something great for Coach to walk into the next morning on her birthday.
This year we decided to fill her office with 432 very large balloons, about 40 of which were filled with paper confetti so that when she walked in and started popping the balloons, the mess got a little heavier with the confetti filled ones...we are bunch of little gnomies.

Needless to say, we got Coach, again, and it was a great beginning to April. On the lax side of things, we had our second weekend of league as we traveled up to the North Country to play Clarkson and St. Lawrence. We had another great weekend and are now 4-0 in the league, 8-1 overall. We had a ton of fun playing up there, although it did rain/ice both days. I think we played our best lacrosse yet. Things are looking really good.
This week promises to be a great week of practice leading up to our showdown against William Smith on Friday. It may still be raining/snowing/icing/God knows up here in Clinton, NY, but April showers bring May flowers....and warm lax weather.
Until next time....Let's go blue!
