Score: CLS 9, PDS 8

Congratulations to the Hawks, two back to back state champs. The boys played the best game of the season today against a tough Charger team. What a ball game 9-8 in regulation, the Hawks were up 8-5 at the end of three but as usual the Chargers were not ready to give up, eventually tying the game with 1:39 left on the clock. The final goal was scored by Carson Song, our leading scorer, with :36 seconds left on the clock. PDS gained possession on the final face off but the defense stepped up to play it out and Emerson Schaeffer made a final save to complete the win.
BE PROUD HAWKS!

In our semifinal matchup with the Ravenscroft squad the Hawks were able to put four solid quarters together to gain the win and a chance to play for the state title for the second year in a row. The young team was able to play solid offense with good possessions when the defense struggled and the defense was solid when we lost possession. We won face-offs and groundballs which are two keys to the game. Congratulations to the boys on an outstanding game and season. The state title game will likely be at Providence Day School on Saturday.

The (#2 Seed)Hawks came away with a solid victory against the (#7 seed) Cavaliers of Durham Academy 12-7.

Score: CLS 8, PDS 7

Tonight’s game with the PDS Chargers met all of the expectations of being a matchup of the top two private schools. The Hawks jumped out to a three goal lead but that didn’t deter the Chargers from fighting back as they scored the next two goals to finish the first quarter 3-2. Both teams exchanged goals in the second, while the Hawks had two goals to the Chargers one in the third. Leading 6-4 to begin the fourth quarter, the Hawks continued solid play at both ends but the Chargers turned up their play. The Hawks only scored one goal in the fourth while the Chargers mounted a comeback to tie the game with only 2 seconds remaining. With the game on the line in sudden, both teams exchanged possessions throughout the first overtime but neither team could get a goal. The second overtime was more of the same, great play by both teams but finally Carson Song found Owen Armstrong on the backside and Armstrong finished the game with 32 seconds remaining. Both teams played with tremendous energy throughout. Congratulations to all!

Whenever we get a victory over the Bucs it is special for all of us. Their tradition of success is hard to match but our boys came out, played hard and won a good game.

Score: Latin 4, CCDS 7

Well it was a disappointing final game for the Hawks today. We had a good game plan, the boys played the tails off and nobody gave up on any play. The coaches could not have asked the boys to play any harder. They all left it on the field. We were down 4-3 at the half, playing with great intensity but CCDs got the first goal of the third quarter. The Hawks scored another to make it 5-4 in the fourth on a great play by Grant Hurd. CCDs scored their sixth goal at seven minutes remaining to give them the lead by two. We had to pressure down the stretch with hopes of winning the ball back but, with our goalie out, CCDS was able to score on an open net to finish the game 7-4. A disappointing loss for the team but it was a great season. The friendships on this team were stronger than any we have had. These guys were a pleasure to coach! Just wish we could have gotten this one.

Score: CLS 13, Ravenscroft 4

We had to battle for possession in the first quarter and the result was a goose egg for both teams. Fortunately the second quarter started with a flurry of good shots and the Ravens began to unravel. The Hawks scored 10 goals on some very pretty ball movement, taking a 10-1 lead into the half. The second half offered everyone a great chance to gain good playoff experience. We will need a solid game on Thursday evening against the Bucs for a chance to play in the final on Saturday. Hope you will come out for the game and cheer on the Hawks.

Score: Latin 7, PDS 6

A big win for the Hawks over the Chargers. The game was certainly a back and forth struggle throughout. We battled to a 3-3 tie at the end of one and 5-5 at halftime. The second half was more of the same as both teams had opportunities but neither team could beat the solid defending at both ends. PDS took a 6-5 lead early in the quarter but the Hawks goalie, Branner Getz (21 saves) shut the door for the remainder of the game, stopping several quality shots. At the same time our offense was able to put two by the Charger keeper. It was great to see players step up tonight; our big scorers were held at bay. Hopefully the boys will gain confidence going into playoffs with this solid win over a good Charger team.

Score: Latin 5, CCDS 11

We had a tough game with the Bucs. Although we can out and scored the first goal, CCDS answered back with 5 to our 1 to lead 5-2 at the half. The Bucs handled the majority of faceoffs and shot well throughout the game. Many of our shots were on target but the Bucs goalie made some good saves to keep us off the board. A disappointing result for the team, loosing 11-5 to the Bucs but we look to rebound against PDS on Tuesday.

Score: Latin 19, Forsyth 6

The Hawks took a commanding lead in the first quarter to lead 9-2 and never looked back. The team had 12 players with points and finished the game at 19-6. As many of you know, I won't score 20 goals in a one sided game so the last 5 minutes we possessed the ball to run out the clock.

Score: Latin 18, Cannon 8

The Hawks played a solid game tonight against Cannon. The first quarter was the highlight of the game as Latin scored 9 goals and two in the first 39 seconds. The team moved the ball well and worked off ball to create very good chances. Cannon's goalkeeper played better in the second, holding Latin to 2 goals on 11 shots. Latin led 11-5 at halftime. Cannon continued to hustle and work hard but Latin controlled the GB's taking a 14-6 lead after three. The final quarter gave some fresh players a good run and they had some great opportunities to score as they added to our advantage, finishing with a score or 18-8. We had fun, played hard and played with confidence. Latin took 41 shots in the game. 12 of the 18 goals were assisted. A good game for the team!

Score: Latin 6, PDS 7 (OT)

The Hawks lost a tough game tonight against the Chargers of PDS. The game went back and forth during the first half but Latin started to roll in the third quarter and took a 6-3 lead but unfortunately, the Chargers had a final surge to tie the game at the end of regulation 6 all. We had two great chances to finish the game but the PDS goalie came up big and our other shot went off the pipe with 15 seconds remaining. The Chargers had a good back side look and they finished the game in the first overtime. This was a frustrating loss that we will learn from.

Score: CLS 7, Memphis Univ. 8 OT

In a hard fought battle of two strong regional teams, the Hawks lost in overtime to the Tenn. State Champs. The game was a great battle of wills, both teams had the lead at different times and it could have gone either way but the final goal was scored with one minute remaining in the first overtime.

Score: CLS 3, Northview 8

The Hawks competed in the first of two games in the Legacy Cup this past weekend. In a game that was stopped with six minutes remaining in the third quarter, the game was stopped due to weather. With the score at 3-8 in favor of Northview, a disappointing result, the Hawks suffered their second defeat of the season. We felt that we were still in the game but had to end early.

Score: Latin 12, Alpharetta 9

The team came out slow against Alpharetta, giving up the first two goals of the game but got things going after that. At 2-0 we answered with the next five goals and out scored the Raiders 3 -1 in the second to lead 8-3 at the half. With a solid lead of 11-5 to begin the 4th quarter, Alpharetta scored four goals to our one to finish the game 12-9. The Hawks head to Atlanta for the Legacy Cup next week.

Score: Latin 16, Cannon 10

The Hawks came out flat today against Cannon. Although we out shot Cannon in the first half by 21 , we only led 8-4. The second half saw Cannon make a short run but the Hawks handled it well and scored 8 more to finish the game 16-10. We will face Alpharetta HS from Georgia tomorrow morning at 10am.

Score: Latin 14, Lassiter 9

The Hawks started their run against Georgia schools well tonight with a good win over Lassiter 14 - 9. Lassiter took the lead on a quick goal but the Hawks answered right back. We did struggle some to maintain our intensity in the second quarter but halftime took care of that. We began picking up ground balls much better in the third quarter, enabling us to play with much more possession. Scoring was balanced through the quarters with 4-3-4-3 and we led 11-6 at the end of three quarters. The Hawks face Cannon on Friday night in another conference battle. It was great to see the Schwabs at the game cheering on the Hawks, what no camera in hand? It felt like old times! Thanks for coming out to cheer the boys on.

Score: Latin 6, CCDS 12

The game started out evenly with both teams exchanging goals but as the first quarter ended CCDS led 5-3. The second quarter only saw one tally for the Bucs, leaving the halftime score 6-3. The Hawks felt that they could battle back but six 4th quarter penalties hurt our chances and CCDS capitalized on our mistakes.

Score: Latin 17, Ravenscroft 6

The Hawks came out flat today as Sprig Break loomed. The big win on Friday night and the thought that the Ravens would not be strong caused the boys to play down. Halftime changed that, some time in the locker room can often be a great cure. With a 10 - 5 lead, the Hawks started the second half with two players in the penalty box. Fortunately, the Hawks made a great save and our pole went down field to score, setting the tone for the rest of the game. The Ravens never got back into it as we scored seven goals to their one. A good win for the Hawks 17 - 6. We play Country Day away on Wednesday, March 30.

Score: Latin 14, Durham Academy 9

The Hawks matched up against a solid DA team tonight. It took all four quarters to get the better of them as both teams had solid scoring throughout the first half. A 6-4 halftime lead for the Hawks was not enough to be comfortable and 9-7 at the end of three was still tight but the final quarter made the difference. As we scored five goals in the final quarter to DA's two, to finish with a 14-9 win. Tomorrow we play Ravenscroft at 1pm.

Score: Latin 13, Blue Ridge 10

In a very competitive game, the Hawks played with great intensity. Six different players scored for the win. The team is off to a great start with solid wins over two teams from out of the region. These games gave everyone the opportunity to get some game experience that will pay off down the road.

Score: Latin 16, Glenelg 8

The Hawks opened the season with a solid win against Glenelg School from Maryland. Latin took a 12-4 halftime lead and continued to roll through the second half. We saw a great deal that we can build upon. We scored well but gave up more goals than we would like. Most improtantly we compeated hard and played together. The Hawks play Blue Ridge tomorrow at 10am.

Score: Latin 11, Christ School 10

The Hawks had a hard fought battle with the Greenies this afternoon. An overtime win improved the team record to 13-3. Latin came out on fire scoring 6 goals in the first quarter but Christ battled back to 7-7 at the half. They controlled the ball through most of the third but CLS lead by one, 9-8 going into the fourth. The Greenies took the lead 10-9, with six minutes remaining CLs tied the game at 10. Both teams battled back and forth but neither team could come up with a goal. In overtime the Greenies controlled the faceoff but the Hawks won the ball back and had several good shots but were stopped. CLS got a holding penalty but man down played well and created a turnover. The Hawks got a time out and designed a great play that ended the game with two unexpected players being the heros. A great feed from Grant Hurd to Ryan Fogg sent the Hawks to celebration in the middle of the field.

Score: CLS 9, PDS 16

PDS go off to a quick start at Latin today, taking a 6-1 first quarter lead and a 10 - 3 halftime difference. The Hawks fought back but couldn't make up for our play early. We will need to come out ready for each opponent down the stretch to win in the playoffs. A disappointing result for all of us.

Score: Latin 14, Marvin Ridge 7

A very sloppy win for the boys. 13 penalties, two were three minute fouls which created frustration for all. The defense certainly stepped up to kill most of the man up situations Marvin Ridge had. We cleared the ball well and our goal tending was solid. We need to play with more control in our next few games. All in all the boys played hard and left with a good win.

Score: Latin 13, Mtn. Brook, AL 4

The first of two games in Atlanta, at the Legacy Cup, Mtn. Brook, Alabama's top team was not a tough opponent for the Hawks. CLS took an 11 - 1 lead going into the 4th quarter and finished 13-4 for their 10 win of the season.

Score: Latin 14, Cannon 10

The team took care of business at Cannon this evening. Seven players had goals for the Hawks which tells well for the future games, we need to spread the scoring.

Score: Latin 9, Ravenscroft 3

At 1-6 the Hawks recognized the Ravens to be limited as a team. Following the PDS game, there were things we recognized as areas we needed to improve. Our goal today was to work on our team game and, in all, we were pretty successful. Although we didn't put a ton of goals up, we did have solid possessions and good looks. As always we strive to improve in each game and today was no exception. A good win!

Score: Latin 15, PDS 18

The Hawks and the Chargers played a hard fought battle at PDS in a driving rain. Both teams struggled with footing but handled the ball surprisingly well. The Hawks led 5-4 at the end of the first but slowed down in the second with only 4 shots and one goal in the second. Down 9 - 6 at halftime the Hawks still had plenty of fight and battled back to 11-12 at the end of three. The final quarter the hawks were able to tie at 15 but the Chargers scored a couple easy ones on Hawk mistakes. The team never gave up; the game was made up of three goal runs by both teams, we were just never able to take a good lead, we were always playing catch-up.

Score: Latin 18, Weddington 13

Coming off the CCDS loss we were worried that the team may be flat going into today's Weddington game but offensively we came out firing. Trouble was, so did Weddington and at the end of one, the score was 6-5 Latin and 9-8 at the half. We settled down in the goal and began playing solid defense throughout the second half, while still shooting well. We took a 15-11 lead going into the fourth quarter. Thomas Armstrong had a season high 10 points and Eric Sipperly had 25 groundballs in the midfield. This was a good win for the Hawks as we get ready for the Greenies of Christ School on Wednesday.

The second half went in favor of the Bucs and they won the game on solid shooting and good defensive play. A very disappointing result for all of us as we seemed in control early.

Score: Latin 14, DA 9

The Hawks had a great victory against a tough Durham Academy team on Friday night. The Cavalier's took a 4-1 lead in the first quarter but the Hawks began a comeback in the second quarter but still trailed 5-4 at the half. We had great wing play on the faceoffs early in the second half and took the lead 6-5 and extended the margin out scoring DA 6-2 in the third to lead 10-7. DA made a good run but the Hawks continued to play solid defense and added four goals in the fourth to DA's two. The final was 14-9. This was a very good test for the Hawks and a great start of our trip. We play Glenelg from Maryland tomorrow.

Score: Latin 14, LNC 3

Tonight's game with a young Lake Norman Charter Team was never really in doubt. We took a 5-0 lead in the first quarter and expended it to 8-0 at halftime.

Score: Latin 11, FCDS 4

There were some nerves as we began the 2010 Varsity Lacrosse season but the boys settled into one of the best games I've seen a Latin lacrosse team play. The score was 0-0 for 11 minutes and 32 seconds with some good back and forth action. The Hawks had some good shots but the Furries goaltender was up to the challenge. As the first quarter ended and the second began, we started to take control offensively; we had solid shots and long possessions resulting in five first half goals. Defensively, we were good in the back but our d-middies had the challenge of several strong offensive players. The halftime score was 5-0. The second half was more of the same offensively; solid possessions and good defending although one Furrie midfielder scored four unassisted goals. Latin scored six second half goals to finish the game at 11-4. What I was most thrilled with was the attitude and communication. We did a great job as a team!

Score: CLS 7, CCDS 18

The Hawks took one on the chin this evening against the Bucks. The first quarter set the tone and we were unable to get much going. At 10-2 at the end of the first all we could do was encourage the boys to never give up and continue chipping away at their lead. We were never able to get things rolling on either side of the field. A disappointing way to finish but I was proud of how hard the worked, even when the chips were down. This was one of the best teams I have ever coached, this game was not a reflection of the way we can play. The coaching staff appreciates everyone's support of the boys to the end.

Score: CLS 18, Cape Fear 9

The Hawks came out with something to prove today. After several tough losses against our rivals, we came out with an "all business" attitude. Cape Fear looked to possess the ball all they could and did a good job early. We broke the ice with six minutes remaining in the first and followed up with two more to close the quarter. CFA scored a couple to gain some momentum but the Hawks countered with five, taking a 8-2 lead into halftime. The third quarter saw the Hawks build their lead to 14-4 and we subbed in masses. A couple of guys scored goals down the stretch; Grant Hurd had two and Marshall Burlingame had his first varsity goal. This was a solid start of our playoff run. We will meet CCDS at CCDS on Thursday afternoon.

Score: CLS 10, CCDS 16

We were finally able to get our game in today with CCDS. The rain looked inevitable for today as well but fortunately it held off. We came out flat to begin but picked it up in the second quarter got going though we were still trailing at halftime 8-4. We had some hard conversation at halftime and came out firing, scoring two quickly. Again, CCDS rallied with two of their own. CLS got to 10-13 but couldn't get any closer as CCDS pulled away at the end to win 16-10. A disappointing loss for the Hawks but now it is playoff time. Seeds come out on Saturday, we should have a home game on Tuesday.

Score: CLS 7, PDS 14

The Hawks came out with emotion and seemed ready to play but some strong goaltending early calmed the team. PDS scored three early but the Hawks kept fighting and scored three in the second quarter. Though we were down 6-3 at halftime, we felt that we could fight back in the second half. PDS, playing maybe their best game of the season in all aspects of the game, separated even further. Some silly mistakes hurt at times and PDS continued to gain confidence to the last whistle. The week layoff between games may have hurt, but PDS was playing very well.

Score: Latin 10, Catholic 15

The result of this game was very disappointing because the team came out to play. We had the intensity and brought our best game of the season but ran short on gas. Our scoring was spread among all of our first group and we did a great job on the face-offs, we defended well and stopped a ton of shots but still came up short. We now know the intensity we need down the stretch and hopefully we will continue to learn from these challenges. We took a 3-2 lead after the first quarter and led 7-5 at the half but the second half hurt us as Catholic scored five to our one in the third and five to our two in the final quarter. We were all very disappointed but look forward to our final games of the season.

Score: CLS 14, Cannon 11

Today we played well enough to win but the coaches felt that we could have done more at both ends of the field against Cannon. Our attack scored their average of about four points each and our middies scored when we needed one. Our hope was to get more players involved in the game but Cannon never gave up and kept the game close. Alex Ryskiewich did a very good job defensively and collected five groundballs.

Today was our Senior Day; it is hard to believe that our season is coming toward the end. We have had a fantastic group of seniors who make our lacrosse program a lot of fun. Today's game lacked some intensity early but as we came out in the second half thisng changed. We scored two goals in the minute and finished the quarter with 7 goals. We had a good lead entering the final quarter 12-4. All of the boys had good runs throught the last 12 minutes, but we gave up a couple goals late in the game. The final score was 12-7.

Score: CLS 10, CCDS 13

The Hawks went on the road to CCDS for our first meeting with the Bucs this season. Both teams came out a bit tight and things seemed very evenly matched. CCDS took the early lead at 3-2 but Latin gained momentum to tie things up at halftime 4-4. The second half started strong for Latin, we scored three goals to CCDS one but as the quarter came to an end, CCDS scored two quick ones to tie things up again at 7-7. In the final quarter Latin things were still even at 9-9 but the Hawk defense struggled to clear the ball down the stretch and CCDS capitalized on our errors, scoring six goals in the final stanza to three for the Hawks. Thomas Armstrong had a very good game for the offense and Alex Ryskiewich had a strong performance for our defense. Scoring: T. Armstrong 5-0-5, E. Sipperly 2-0-2, T. Sipperly 2-0-2, A.

Score: Latin 14, Christ School 8

The team had a successful trip up to the mountains in a tough match with the Greenies. The wind was blowing hard throughout the game making play in one direction a challenge for both teams. CS took a 1-0 lead but the Hawks came back with four unanswered goals from our inproving offense. As the game progressed, the Hawks were able to take control and a solid lead of 12-5 going into the 4th quarter but, as usual, CS would not give up and fought to the last whistle. Sbo Dube had three great saves in the final minutes as he came off the bench to finish out the game. This game was a battle, as usual, the Greenies are always looking for a big win over a Charlotte School. The Hawks weren't going to be a win for the Greenies, they will have to hope to beat PDS or CCDS.

Score: CLS 19, Providence HS 21

Our game with Providence HS was one the fans certainly found entertaining but one that frustrated the defensive coaches for both teams. In a 48 minute game, 40 goals were scored. The game was a back and forth battle for the offenses but in the end PHS came through with more face-off wins and consequently more possessions. Latin played hard throughout the game and closed the game to two goals but ran out of time.

Score: CLS 8, Lovett 17

Our second game of the Legacy Cup was the true challenge. Lovett School, the top Atlanta school that draws strong players from the region, had only one game that day and came our fresh. Our boys had played a good Aphaaretta team and prepared for round two. Tayler Sipperly took the opening face-off down the middle for the first goal only 8 seconds into the game. Andy Metzger followed that up with a great shot put us up 2-1 but slowly Lovett to the wind out of us and led 10 - 7 at halftime. Our biggest challenge was the frustration of being tired, we couldn't keep up with the fresher Lovett team. The third quarter was all Lovett, both teams gave their younger players the chance to play through the 4th quarter. Ryan Fogg had a goal and Sbo Dube played well in the goal. Final score, CLS 8 - Lovett 17
This was a great weekend for the team; we built relationships as a group, won together, we lost together and we will continue to grow together from the experience.

Score: CLS 11, Alpharetta HS 8

The boys travelled to Atlanta for the weekend to compete in the Legacy Cup; an event in memory of a boy killed in a car crash. This was our second year attending; the event is more than lacrosse as the parents of the boy speak and encourage everyone to live a legacy. Kyle Harrison attends and speaks as well about his life and how he leads it. Saturday morning we woke early for an 8am game with Alpharetta HS, a big Atlanta public school. The team came out strong, scoring three first quarter goals and added three more in the second; all coming from the attack. Leading 6-4, David Pearson, Thomas Armstrong and Eric Sipperly continued to lead the way; Latin finished with an 11-8 win and the attack combine for 16 points, 10 goals and 6 assists.

Wilmington Hoggard 19, CLS 14
Another good challenge for the Hawks. This was a game of goalkeepers. It was raining and neither keeper could save much. We were tied 12-12 in the third quarter; their keeper had a few saves when we did not down the stretch. A great high pace, high emotion game. Another game that was a good experience early in the season.

The Hawks came out strong against a very young Fort Mill team. This was a great opportunity for our younger players to get allot of playing time and experience at the varsity level. A number of players scored their first varsity goals and contributed to the win. Both goalies played well, the defense stood up to the Fort Mill attack and overall CLS proved to be the better team.

Forsyth kept hanging in there but the Hawks kept at 10-6 lead going to halftime. Tayler Sipperly took most of the faceoffs, winning 15 of 20 draws.

Score: Latin 7, CCDS 19

First I must congratulate the 2008 Boy Lacrosse Team on an outstanding season. We finished with the most wins the team has had during my four years. As coaches we were figuring to win about 13 if things went well. Today we played in the State Championship with 16 wins under our belts. I could not be more proud of a group of young men than I am of these boys. Today was a tough loss. Anytime you are able to make the finals of the State Tournament, you come in with one thing in mind, that is to win. Today's loss was disappointing for all of us. Remembering that we were in it, is the key; nobody else was, they were all in the stands. Every guy on our team gave their all today, we could not have asked for more. The captains led the way and the team was with them to the end. This group of guys played for each other this year; there were not seniors, juniors, sophomores or freshmen, they were the Hawks Lacrosse Team and proud of it. Their effort each day made this season very special for all of us. Be proud, hold your heads high and always remember what we were able to accomplish when we worked TOGETHER. Congratulations on a great season! Coach Sip Final Score 19-7

Score: Latin 15, PDS 14

If you missed the game tonight, you missed a barn-burner at PDS. The Hawks came out on fire, taking a solid lead but as is usually the case, the Charger's came back strong down the stretch. As we came into the 4th quarter we were up 11-8 but things were tightening up. We continued to play with confidence but PD kept pounding. They tied things up at the end, taking us to sudden death overtime. Andrew Tanneberger won the draw and the Hawk's took a timeout. We set up a quick play; pass, pick opposite Tanneberger got the pass from Metzger, Metz set the pick and there was Sipperly on the cut and he hit the net. The crowd went wild and the Hawk's are on their way to the finals. Congratulations to the boys for a gutsy performance! Well done.

The Hawks gave up seven early goals to trail 7-1 but began battling back in the second quarter to trail 7-4 at halftime. The Bucs came out hard again in the third but Latin continued to work but the initial defecit was too much to recover from as the Buc's goalie came up with some big saves. This was the last regular season game for the Hawks, we wait until Saturday to hear the seeds for post-season. Thanks for everyone's support throughout the season. Let's win the next three! Go Hawks!

Score: Latin 13, Providence Day 10

The Hawks had something to prove tonight. Our first game with the Chargers was a tough loss to swallow. Tonight was another story; the Hawks came to play. We did a much better job posessing the ball, shot the ball accurately and we were very good on groundballs. All of our offensive players scored tonight. The defense played very well and Drew Isaacson came up big in the goal. This was Latin's first win against PDS for most of the boys and an exciting outcome for the team. This was the best team effort we have had this season. Congratulations to the Hawks on a great win.

The Hawks came up against a strong Charlotte Catholic squad on Saturday night. Catholic, ranked #2 in the Southeast US, came out running. They scored 5 first quarter goals to Latin's 2. Catholic added 4 more in the second quarter to lead 9-3 at halftime. Catholic certainly had the numbers and depth on a hot evening; running two full attack squads, three midfields and six defenders. The Hawk's battled throughout, had some good opportunities, but could not get the momentum going our way.

The remainder of the City Tournament is uncertain as the CCDS vs. PDS game was cancelled due to lightening.

The Varsity Girls Lacrosse team faced tough competition on 4/16 against Marvin Ridge. The Hawks were able to keep the score at 0 - 0 in the first few minutes af the game but then Marvin Ridge pulled ahead. The girls didn't let up and scored 2 of their goals in the last minutes of the game. In fact, Latin's last goal was scored by Kalyn Carson with 1.5 seconds left on the clock! Kalyn Carson was the top scorer with 2 goals and Ally Finical, Christy O'Keefe and Maggie Achey each scored 1. The score could have been even more lopsided but for the amazing dexterity of Alex Taylor, goalkeeper, who had 19 saves!!!

The Hawks handled a much improved Cougar team from Cannon. Both teams scored early but Latin was able to pick things in the second and third quarters as Cannon played a possession game game but couldn't find the net. Drew Isaacson had a solid game, as did the defense. We need to get our legs under us as we meet CCDS on Friday. A good win for the Hawks to get back on track after two tough losses.

The Hawks had a tough evening over at PDS tonight. We went down 8-0 at the end of one and trailed 13-1 at the half. Not much improved in the second half. PD had a very hot goal who stopped 15 of 16 shots. When we compete with our conference teams we have to be ready for a battle. Tonight the Hawks came out flat and paid the price. Our goal will be to learn from our mistakes and be better next week.

We had the first tally but Pope scored to match our goal and they added a second to end the quarter ahead 6-2. The final quarter saw better action for the Hawks but we didn't have enough to recover. We finished with an 8-5 loss. Drew Isaacson did a great job in the goal. Tayler Sipperly did most of the scoring for Latin with Tanneberger sidelined with an ankle injury.

Score: Latin 10, DA 7

The Hawks headed to DA yesterday for our game but ran into stopped traffic on I85 with a Medivac team flying injuries out. The delay was over an hour which pushed the game back about 30 minutes. With a long trip and a short warmup, we took the field against a much improved DA squad. We began slowly on the offense but played solid defense in the first quarter. Drew Isaacson had several good saves and we hit the net twice to lead 2-0. Momentum picked up in the second and the Hawks took a 6-0 lead and finished the quarter 6-1. The second half was a bit lack-luster, the rain was coming down steadly and the Hawks scored when they needed to but we gave DA confidence offensively as they scored 6 second half goals. The final score was 10-7 in favor of the Hawks. A good result for a challenging day for the team, we returned to Latin after 10pm.

Score: Latin 11 Christ School 10

Coming out flat was exactly what the Hawks did this afternoon. If you watched the first half you'd be sure we had lost the game. My hope was that the team would sort things out; begin to understand that they need to play as a team and never give up until the last whistle. Today's game highlighted the attack; the trio rode hard and got the ball on the ground, we won the ground balls in the offensive end, and the result was a goal. Max Hagler, David Pearson and Eric Sipperly finished with 10 of the team's 11 goals. It was great to see such a strong team performance. Over the past few years we have lost so many close games, winning this game will hopefully help us gain confidence as we move forward. Andrew Tanneberger scored the one remaing goal. A great result after an awful start. The Hawks play Durham Academy away on Thursday, away.

Score: 14-7

The girls' varsity lacrosse team had a fabulous win against South Meck on 3/28. The Lady Hawks came on strong with an early lead of 4-1 but by the beginning of the second half South Meck only trailed by one, 5-6. The Hawks realized they better come back strong which they did, allowing only 2 more goals by South Meck and scoring 6 more for a 14-7 victory.

The Latin goals were scored by Kalyn Carson (5), Ally Finical (4), Sarah Black (3), Ann Louise Seaton (1), and Brooks Maund (1). Louise Hindal picked up an all time high 10 ground balls, followed by Claire Gibson with 6, Christy O'Keefe and Virginia McGarry each with 4, Jacqueline Stedman and Madelyn Welch each had 3, Kirsten Dyer had 2 and Ann Louise Seaton, Ally Finical, Maggie Madearis, Meredith Walsh, and Brooks Maund each had 1. Christy O'Keefe was the leader in take-aways with 5, Louise Hindal had 3, Jacqueline Stedman and Madelyn Welch had 2, and Kalyn Carson, Sarah Black, Virginia McGarry and Brooks Maund each had 1.
Alex Taylor continues to be tough in the cage. She had 3 fabulous saves.

Score: Latin 14, Myers Park 9

Hope you are all doing well. Remember spring break? We, I think, were still on it this afternoon. Myers Park gave us a heck of a run for our money for three quarters but we got the job done down the stretch. The score was tied 2-2 at the end of one and the Hawks were getting anxious. Some dropped passes and slow feet created too many Myers Park opportunities in the second. We led 6-5 but things were tight, we were challenged by MP's pressure and tried to do too much individually. Each side traded goals in the third, we were up 7-6. Thanks to a good final quarter we got some breathing room down the stretch, finishing the Mustangs hopes, scoring seven goals to their three. We came out with a 14- 9 win in an ugly match. Good to win in a tough game.

Scoring: Andrew Tanneberger 4-2-6, Tayler Sipperly 5-0-5, David Pearson 3-2-5, Andy Metzger 2-0-2.

Score: CLS 14, North Meck 5

With a weary group of Hawks taking the field this morning, without Tanneberger, Metzger, Burdick, Foreman and Roach, we looked to be in a contest. The guys started sluggishly but the middies started running and pushed the ball offensively. A 4-1 lead at the end of one still had us concerned and halftime at 6-2 we were not out to a big advantage. We had work to do. At 11-4 finishing three quarters at 11-4 we looked good. My son Tayler stepped up without his two line mates scoring 5 goals, Robert Jones added another three for a solid game. Hagler and Pearson continued their steady play. We finished with a 14-5 win. Another good day for the Hawks!

The Hawks came out with a solid win up at Forsyth 15-5 over the Furries. Road games always worry me some but the team came out and played their best lacrosse yet. We were talking well at both ends of the field and finding the open man when slides came. We took a 6-0 lead in the first and increased it to 9-1 at the end of the half. The Hawks finished with a solid win and were excited about Spring Break. Five players headed out for the break but we still had North Meck to contend with on Saturday morning. Remember those days, the spring break exit. Everybody was worried about North Meck the next morning.

Score: CLS 17, Forsyth 9

The Hawks came out slowly against Forsyth, a team we had beaten 14-4 only a week ago. The team hopefully learned that we need to be ready for any opponent we face, even teams we had beaten. The halftime score was 5-3 and Forsyth came out strong to begin the second half, scoring first and getting even at eight. Finally Latin decided they had enough and turned the pace up, scoring nine straight goals. Matt Pearson joined the game at halftime to spark the comeback as his leadership and desire lifted everyone's spirits. Now we prepare for the final four weekend at Ravenscroft. Friday game is 4:30pm, Championship game is Saturday at 11am.

Our regular season record finishes at 10-6.

Score: CLS 9, PDS 10

The boys lost a heart breaker to PDS tonight. Up 9-5 in the fourth quarter, we let the lead slip away and lost 10-9. We look at the games we have lost, six now, by a total of 7 goals and know that the state title is within reach. We need to believe that we can beat our rivals. Andrew Tanneberger led the team with 5 goals.

Score: Latin 9, CCDS 10

A fourth loss by one goal certainly is frustrating. The Hawks came up short this evening in another hard fought conference battle. Both side played hard and the lead changed hands a coulpe times. The Hawks showed grit fighting back at the end and had a chance to tie but things didn't fall our way. We look forward to aour game with Catholic on Thursday in the City Championship Tournament. At Catholic 7pm

Score: Latin 9, Christ School 4

The Hawks traveled up to take on the Greenies of Christ School in a rematch from last years State Championship playoff game. We had something to prove against the team who eliminated us last year. Both teams recognized the significance of the game and came to play a competitive , physical game. Both teams battled throughout but the Hawks were able to take a lead into halftime and extend the lead to a 9-4 final. The Latin defense was outstanding; we played well one on one and held the Greenies scoreless on eight man up tries, including two times when we were two men down. The offense was solid even with several players missing.

Score: Latin 5, PDS 6

A disappointing result for the Hawks as we lost our third game by one goal. Giving up five first period goals put the team under pressure but we fought back to within one at 4-5 and back within one in the fourth quarter. Coming out slowly hurt our chances but we proved that we could battle back and clearly can compete with the best in the state. We will have another shot at them on May 4th. The coaching staff is proud to coach this group of young men, they are awesome!!!

Score: Latin 19, Ravenscroft 4

The Ravens came in and met a confident Latin team. The boys came out running, scooping and scoring. The Ravens chose not to slide so we were scoring unassisted goals early. As the game score opened up the slides came and we scored assisted goals. The boys were hungry to throughout and several players scored their first varsity goal.

Score: Latin 14 Weddington 2

The Hawks went on the road to Weddington looking to even the score after last years, first time ever win for the Warriors over the Hawks. The boys had a loose warm-up but when the game began the team ment business. Latin took a 4-0 lead before Weddington got on the board with two tallies, ending the first quarter 4-2. Latin proved fit and ready to attack in the second, scoring 5 unanswered goals to end the half 9-2. The defense held firm in the second half as well, the offense slowed but scored five more to finsih the game 14-2. This was a solid all around performance the the Hawks. We still have room for improvement at both ends of the field but the team is starting to believe in themselves and "proving it".

Score: Latin 14 Cannon 5

The Hawks came out strong in their debut following spring break. A strong first quarter put the Hawks out front 8-0 and 12-1 at halftime. The second half was an opportunity to see our younger players perform and the game finished up with a score of 14-5. The Hawks were on fire early; Cannon couldn't clear the ball, giving the Latin boys several scoring opportunities that we capitalized on. We were moving very well and shooting quality shots on goal.

Score: Latin 16, Cape Fear 6

Latin 16, Cape Fear Academy 6

Latin took a while to get off the bus on Saturday, in Wilmington but proved to be the stronger team as the game progressed. Cape Fear showed that they are becoming a team of the future today. They have a great group of young players that are big, aggressive and handle the ball well. With more game experience they will be strong. Latin fell behind early on a quick goal and then a three minute penalty that cost the Hawks two additional goals. Down 3-0 to start caused some consern but the Hawks fought back to 3-4 at halftime. With emotions high Latin went on a nine goal run in the third quarter to lead 12 - 4 and extended the lead to 16 - 4 be. before the Canes got a couple at the end. It was a competitive game throughout.

Score: Latin 6 Counrty Day 7

Things seemed strange at Latin on Tuesday night. The Hawks and the Bucs met in an early season game. Both teams came in having lost close games this past weekend and there was limited emotion before the game. Latin came out strong in the first quarter but settled down during the 2nd and 3rd quarters while the Bucs turned things up. As the game finished we were unable to close the gap. Latin played hard but we just didn't finish the job.

Score: Latin 10 Providence HS 11 OT

The Latin Lacrosse team played a strong game against a tough Providence HS team. A beautiful Saturday afternoon, a great lacrosse game; it was disappointing someone had to loose in this overtime battle. With only 19 seconds left in overtime, the Hawks were defeated by the Panthers. Both teams had the lead throughout the second half, keeping everyone in the stands on the edge of their seats. The Hawks had some great goals as did Providence but in the end it was a frustrating loss for the Hawks. Andrew Tanneberger had four goals, Max Hagler had a career high three goals, Andy Metzger had two and Ryan Almquist had one. Defensively, captain, David Paschal played a great game.

Score: Latin 12 Greensboro Day 5

The Hawks got off to a great start against Greensboro Day. Taking an 11-0 halftime lead the Hawks were able to give everyone the opportunity to play and gain valuable experience. The boys looked good for our first time out. We look forward to a very competitive game with Providence HS on Saturday at 2pm.

Score: Latin 2, PDS 11

The Hawks ran into a tough Charger squad today. Two days rest following the CDS game was not enough recovery time for the boys, we played with tired legs. Our ball handling was questionnable and we played a lack luster first half. The second half the Hawks played better, we collected ground balls, stayed with cutters and played with more patience but could not generate offense. These next two weeks will make or break our season, we must play with passion and have fun. Today the Chargers led 9-2 at halftime and we never threatened them.

Score: Latin 7, CCDS 13

Latin travelled ofer to meet the #1 ranked team in the NCISAA and met a tough challenge. CCDS pressured the Hawks all over the field, putting the ball on the ground too often, creating unsettled situations that hurt us early in the game. Latin scored first but gave up four goals later in the period to trail 1-4 to begin the second period. We picked up our pace but ended up swapping two goals each in the second. Trailing 3-6 entering the third, the team was confident we could battle back but the Bucs kept their edge. With exaustion settleing in and the game on the line we worked to get the ball but left players open for several late Buc goals. It was a hard fought game on both sides. We will see if we can get them next time at home.

Score: Latin 10, Durham Acad. 5

The Hawks came out strong against the 12 time state champions, Durham Academy. Jack Hinsen scored 36 seconds into the game on a righty run from behind. DA quickly came back with a strong righty dodge from up top to even things. Latin had the next two goals to go ahead 3-1 and took the lead up to 6-3 at halftime. A similar situation to last year (4-8) at halftime but DA had the lead and we came back to win the game 12-11 to reach Latin's first NCISAA Championship game. With the team reminded of that during halftime we seemed prepared for a solid second half but DA battled back with two goals early in the third period. With the score 6-5 in favor of Latin, the Hawks stepped up defensively and the offense came on strong scoring the final four goals. The Hawks played a physical game through the second half, we controlled the ground balls, knocked people out of bounds when the opportunities were there and played very well between the boxes. Scoring was spread amoung all of our offensive players. It is always nice to beat a team with such a great lacrosse tradition. Good work Hawks!

Score: Latin 13, Christ School 3

Coming off too many close games the Hawks needed a strong team effort and finished with an impressive win over Christ School. Additional inspiration came from the lax power rating which ranked Christ School above Latin. With a 13 -3 victory for the motivated Hawks, we are hoping to see strong performances in each game during this stretch of competitive matches.
Andrew Tanneberger started things off with a goal at :23 seconds and Latin didn't look back taking a 7-2 lead into halftime. Today's scoring was well spread; eight players had points, something we will need throughout the year. The Hawks are beginning to play as a team; games like this prepare us for our future competition.

The Hawks came up with a big win against a solid Winter Park program. Winter Park (9-1) the number two team in Florida, showed great stickwork and excellent skill.

The game scoring was 2-2 at the end of the 1st, 4-4 at the end of two, 6-6 following the third and 8-8 to end regulation. We finished the game on a great play; Matt Pearson picked up the ball in traffic and threaded a pass to TC Byrne, TC hit Weston breaking toward the goal, Weston found Tyler Hagler in front who finished the play with a great shot over the goalies shoulder. This was a great confidence builder for the boys as we approach a tough weekend with Ravenscroft and McCallie.

Score: Latin 6 Country Day 4

There are few words that can describe the boys winning the 2005 NCISAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. This victory was the culmination of three months of hard work. As the coach, I am very proud of the way the boys played the entire season. Todays game was just another example of how well these boys came together as a team.

In a slow moving first half of play, nerves seemed to be the biggest factor. As Latin began the second half, we knew we had more than what we had shown earlier in the game and took play to the Bucs. Four third quarter goals put Latin up to stay. Starting the fourth quarter with a 6-2 lead we were looking good but still expecting more. The Bucs scored a couple late goals but didn't have the fire power down the stretch. The Latin Hawks became State Champs for the first time in history. Congratulations to the boys, their families and Charlotte Latin School.

Latin is in the State Final. The Hawks first ever win against the DA Cavaliers results in a first ever Championship Game. It was a tough game with the Hawks down 8-4 at halftime but as soon as the third quarter whistle blew we were on the comeback. With six unanswered goals in the third DA was on their heels and we took the lead. DA battled back to tie the score at 10 but David Pharr scored on an assist from Teddy Schwab and Weston Wilkinson finished out the Latin scoring on an assist from Brad Starbuck.

Everyone played as a team and that was the difference. When we go out and have fun, we play hard, move the ball and make it happen. My hat is off to the defense, they did a great job on DA's solid attack!
