Program
Our team competes in the New England Scholastic Lacrosse League (NESLL). Our overarching goal is to help our players develop academically, socially, and athletically. We place a heavy emphasis on our off-season and off-field training to help be the best we can be both lacrosse players and overall athletes. Our team has advanced to the Small School Tournament since 2014 and was the NESLL championship runner-up in 2025. Numerous players have gone on to compete at the Division I, II, and III level, eventually earning All-American, All-Region, and All-Academic Honors.
