The Bowie girl’s lacrosse team ended their season with a loss of 11 to 10 against Georgetown in their last game of district finals.
“We ended up going to district finals and losing in the last second to Georgetown,” Senior Carolyn Smith said. “The game was very intense, and I haven’t seen the team work so hard for something in my whole lacrosse career and it was amazing to see how we handled the game.”
Because the score was so close, many athletes were disappointed with the last game of the season.

 
“When we played Georgetown the final score was very close,” sophomore Johnee Wolter said. “It was a shame that we lost; all the girls played their hearts out.”

 
However, head coach LV Johns is happy with the way the team played this season.
“The girls had a phenomenal season,” Johns said.

 
Senior athletes on the team played their last game against Georgetown. Carolyn Smith thinks that the team, especially seniors, should be proud of the hard work they put in all year.

 
“It was an emotional game considering it was our last game for the seniors and we wanted so bad to win,” Smith said. “I definitely think we worked our butts off and that we should be proud of how far we got this season.”

 
With many new players joining the team this year, the athletes quickly formed close bonds.
“My favorite part [of the season] was playing the games with all the new girls and I think that we worked together the best,” Wolter said. “We’re a very tight group and we all knew each other’s strengths and weaknesses.”

 
This season the team believes its greatest strength was in its resilience and determination.
“I think our team was really good at making a comeback, when we got knocked down a peg we always came back twice as hard,” Bienvenu said.
Seniors Carolyn Smith and Reilly Fraizer will be playing Division III lacrosse in college next fall.

 
“I’m playing at Hendrix college in Arkansas,” Fraizer said. “The coach is amazing and I could really see myself doing well on that team.”
Smith will be playing at Huntingdon College in Alabama next year.

 
“I’m going to play with Huntingdon college. I decided to play there when I stayed the night with the team,” Smith said. “I got to know the girls and the coach is awesome. That along with the school just won me over.”
