LAX Girls Report:
It was an incredible, history-making week for the Novato Girls Lacrosse team.
First was Thursday...The MCAL semi-finals against MC. The girls and Coaches Daly and Neff knew that this game was the biggest hurdle between the team and the MCAL pennant. The girls came on strong and made sure it was clear who was the dominant team. Because of the rivalry, the energy around the field was intense...but obj the field the players didn't seem to notice. They just did what they were there to do: they won the game and advanced to the finals. The IJ covered the game very thoroughly, including photos, and the article can be read here:

Then it was on to the finals on Friday against Redwood, an easier matchup. This was the senior girls last MCAL game and they were not to be denied. From the first whistle to the last, Novato was dominant. For the first time in Novato girls lacrosse history, the hornets brought home the MCAL Pennant. Read all about this game, which was also covered by the IJ, here:

PE WAIVERS
|
This is a quick note from our Registrar Jeanie Olian. Any ATHLETE that still needs a PE waiver from Previous years, must take care of those waivers immediately. They will need to be sure to get an "old form" from her in order to do so. Next year, NO ONE will be able to apply previous sports to the current year. Please be sure to see her if you have any questions.
