Boys lacrosse at Wyoming Seminary has grown over the years, and this year they are better than ever. With a current record of 13 wins and 0 losses, they are enjoying their extremely successful season. This year, they have a combination of their PIAA league games and exhibition games against some of the best teams around. The last weekend in April, they celebrated a win against Johnson City, a team they beat for the first time in boys lacrosse history.
Not only are these boys successful on the field, they also are successful in their team culture. They care so much about each other, and it is obvious to the spectators. Throughout the game, whether on the field or the sidelines, the boys are constantly patting each other on the backs, hyping each other up, and overall just enjoying the game. A member of the team even stated, “the team culture and chemistry is great, and we are hoping to make a run in the state tournament. We are a very close group of kids with great coaches as well.”
As a team, they have clearly been successful, but there are many individual successes as well. Some recent accomplishments have been Richie Deluna with his 200th career faceoff win, Matt Swartz scored his 100th goal, Quinn Kelly reached 400 saves, and Xavier Beaulac scored his 100th point. They all support each other’s accomplishments and achievements, adding to the positive culture of the team.
