Girls Lacrosse

2024 Season Review

After starting the season with six consecutive losses, the girls lacrosse team fought hard to earn a 6-6 record to finish out the season. Despite losing several players at different points throughout the season due to injury, the Royals adapted well to change and found success. Senior Ally Cissell and junior Anna Rosario led the team as captains. Cissell led the team in nearly every stat category, which led to her being named to the All-Sectional and All-State teams. Joining Cissell on the All-Sectional team include freshmen Haily Engel and Lauren Miller, sophomore Micaiah Pierson and juniors Addison Marsh and Anna Rosario. End-of-season Roncalli Awards went to the following Royals: MVP & Leadership Award- Ally Cissell, Mental Attitude Award- Ella Holtz and Sportsmanship Award- Senior Abby Young. 

Several freshmen came into the team this year and made an immediate impact, including Hailey Engel, Lauren Miller and Ella Holtz. Micaiah Pierson stepped up in the midfield position and was crucial in the team’s defensive success this year. Addison Marsh anchored the defense in goal and had an impressive statistical year with over 50% save percentage. Coach Anna Ziemba shared, “Our most memorable moment of the season was a dominant 15-4 win on senior night. The thing that generates the most pride for me from this season is how much the girls came together as a team, and several of them took on new roles. Many contributed in bigger roles than they had in previous years, and they really competed as a complete team.”
