John Handley high school (Winchester, PA) defeated the visiting Blue Storm 11-5 in a boys' varsity lacrosse game April 29.
Mercersburg travelled with only 15 healthy players, and found themselves down 6-1 in the early going. But the Blue Storm continued to battle, and the scoring was almost even the rest of the way. Sam Wallace '23 scored two goals and handed out two assists while Davis Noone '23 also scored twice while going 10-18 on face-offs and picking up four ground balls. Frank Cantera '23 scored Mercersburg's other goal. Chris Labolle '23 once again led the team with ten ground balls; the fifth time this season he has collected six or more in a game. Taimur Rehman '25 made eight saves in goal in just his second career start.
The Blue Storm (1-8) visits Hedgesville (WV) high school for a 7 pm game on Wednesday, May 3.
