TuHS Varsity Lacrosse vs. SHS Varsity Lacrosse
April 8th, 2011
While I was thinking about, "What would be news worthy?" My Facebook read that I was invited to the Boys Varsity Lacrosse Game against Sherwood. Goal Keeper Spencer Nix said it was going to be a huge game for them, so I decided it was news worthy.

Tualatin takes there starting positions on the field, talking to some of the JV players before hand, they said most of the varsity players were anxious about the game that was about to take place.

Number #9 stands angrily after a shot was scored by Sherwood. By this time late in the second quarter, Tualatin Boy's were discouraged and having a hard time bringing it back.

Defensive players #2 and #22 run around the crease to protect shots on goal but epically fail as Tualatin scores their second goal on Sherwood.

Defensive player #3, Medvec checks out his knee after being pushed down on the field and sliding across the track. In boy's lacrosse, this is legal. Anything that doesn't make you bleed profusely is also legal. Tualatin's defense got a lot of work during this game.

Number #3, Medvec switches positions after being sidelined by Sherwood attack man #2. During lacrosse, some players switch positions constantly while others remain in the same position.

Number #10, Rotta circles the crease line on Sherwood's side looking for a way to cut in to try and make a shot onto the goal. Rotta is a senior and one of Tualatin's most accomplished lacrosse players.

Number #15 stands in front of the goal at the starting position after Sherwood scored again. At this time, this was their 8th goal of the evening, Tualatin only having two.

Number #10, Rotta tries to steal the ball from Sherwood attack man Number #11. In boy's lacrosse you can try to steal the ball anyway you want; you can hit, punch, push, whack, etc. Any violent verb seems to work for them.

Number #24, otherwise known as "Big Ben" jogs off field as the buzzer rings for the game to be over.
Not Tualatin's best game, but they still played strong. The final score was 10 - 2.
