Lacrosse - 2009 Season Begins


Annie's lacrosse team, the Lebanon Warriors, played scrimmages on Thursday and today (Saturday) to sort of kick of this year's season. The first actual game is Tuesday, but the scrimmages are pretty much like the real thing. These photos are from today's contest at Loveland, about 10 miles from here. Annie shared goal time with the JV goalie, and both looked pretty good although Loveland (a Class 1 team, which I guess means they are way out of our league) won easily by a 16-8 score.


Lee Ann and I both watched the Thursday game and froze in a brisk wind. I don't know who won that night but the opponent was Fenwick and the teams were better matched that day than this. Today Lee Ann was working so it was just me and a handful of other Lebanon fans cheering the lady Warriors on.
Other news: A week ago Lee Ann sent her horse Ruler back to his previous owner's farm to be put out to pasture. Poor Ruler was lame for almost the whole year she has owned him and didn't show any prospect of recovering much, so she made the difficult call to give him back. We wish him a happy retirement with his old buds!
