As I mentioned last week, Kristian's lacrosse team played in the Section X Finals Friday night. They lost in a very intense hard fought game. But, Kristian "won". In the off season before his Junior year, Kristian busted his tail to get in shape and improve his stick skills. But, his work wasn't recognized and he sat most of the season. He didn't give up though. He worked even harder this year. In the beginning of the season it looked like he would be disappointed again and see little time. But he fought through it. Two games into the season Kristian's hard work was rewarded with a starting position. He had a wonderful season. He plays defense and when they played a team with a hot shooter, Kristian was the one that the coach called on to shut the shooter down. He has been assigned to a few All Americans this year. All of whom will be playing D1 lacrosse at the likes of Syracuse and Maryland. Friday was no different. He was assigned to defend All American. Kristian held him pointless. NO GOALS NO ASSISTS. Kristian could have laid his stick down after last season,but he chose to be a winner. We are so proud of his perseverance.
