It was the last lacrosse weekend of the fall season for Number 2. They played very well and pretty much dominated the three games. Now it is rest, refit, and on to the Spring High School Season for both 2 and 3, and club lacrosse for 4. The fall seasons are typically more about individual growth than team success. Number 2’s was different. The focus of their season was team cohesion, development, and shared sacrifice. That is the best lacrosse because these are the kids he has played with his whole life, and they will be the ones he goes to battle with as they try to make a deep run in the playoffs. By almost all measures, this season was a success, and I look forward to watching the High School and Club seasons play out for each of them. Now, on to Christmas.
As a reminder, Lunch Box Quotes are notes I include in the kids’ lunches every day. Number 1 gets a text, but 2-4 get a handwritten napkin.
