Interview with Lacrosse Coach Falcon

What were Lacrosse’s accomplishments so far this season? What is your proudest moment of the Lacrosse team so far?
Accomplishments for the season would be just watching the team progress and get better every day, seeing their skill level is picking up and their IQ of the game is growing each week. Proudest moment of the season I would say is playing Poly. I really feel like we played a complete game and that the team played well together, and I think that was the best game we played all season.
Do you see a difference in chemistry within the team from when you first started practicing?
In the beginning, the guys had to learn how to play together, and a lot of the guys were first year players, second year players, and they just had to learn to gel with their team together. I think each week that happened. I think the team came together after the third game of the season against Forest Park when we came back after Spring Break and we realized that we got to be a team. We can’t be selfish and we’ve got to do it together. As we played games, you saw the progression in how we play together and how we built on putting the system in and working together.
What are your plans moving forward, going into playoffs?
The plan moving forward is just to finish the season strong. We’re not worried about wins and losses. I always say a loss is a lesson, so these next two games we just got to keep playing the way we played against Poly. And then in the playoffs, we just got to go out there and play 100%. Win or lose, I just want us to be able to play hard, represent themselves and the school and the program.
