Match report 12/10/24: St Helen & St Katharine’s
Stowe Lacrosse 1st X travelled to SHSK school on a sunny autumn afternoon. The team was down some players due to injuries after the county tournament. Dom Fleet Wood was asked to come up to ease the pressure on defence.
The first half was a hotly contested game of lacrosse with Emelia Brett having success on the draw and scoring multiple goals. The team are continuing to try and implement a new attacking motion which is looking better every game. The first half saw us go in 5-3 down.
The 2nd half started extremely well, and Stowe scored 2 fast goals to make it 5-5. However, our lack of substitutes paid its part in the game as SHSK managed to outrun us and eventually won 9-5.
Notable performers in this game were Martha Bond in goal, Emelia Brett in centre and Maddie Baker in attack.
