Woodbridge Girls Lacrosse Wins Tournament Championship

Warrior Lady Lax returned from the Rose Bowl in Pasadena champions of the Blue Division bracket, defeating three of the top teams in Southern California in the process.

The Warriors began the morning with a decisive 11-2 victory against a Glendale squad which made the CIF Southern Section North Division quarterfinals last season. Senior captain Anna Takushi led all scorers with four goals while sophomore Jenny Buckland was a force on defense and in transition and assisted on three goals.

Mid-day saw the Warriors take on the Yorba Linda Mustangs, a match-up which has become a fierce rivalry over the course of several meetings the past three season between the closely matched foes. A back and forth contest ended in a 7-5 Warrior victory, sparked by senior captain Joyce Yang's two goals and determined work in transition as well as clutch play between the pipes by junior goalie Averly Tan.

The afternoon championship contest pitted the Warriors against the preseason #7 team in Orange County, the Trabuco Hills Mustangs. The Warriors built a first half lead around the defensive duo of senior Jiyoo Chang and sophomore Danielle Gonzalez but then saw Trabuco rally at the end of the second half to tie the game at 7 all and send it into overtime. In overtime sophomore attacker Karina Yamasaki, senior attacker Ellie Young, and Anna Takushi made clutch plays which culminated in two unanswered goals and a 9-7 victory.

The victory marks Woodbridge's first tournament title in program history and first victory against a top 10 county opponent - a testament to the hard work and competitive spirit of this remarkable group of girls. Check our schedule elsewhere on the website and make sure to catch this team in action this season!

Warrior Lady Lax Alumni Update

The photo above comes from the Santa Barbara Shootout, a collegiate women's lacrosse tournament held at UC Santa Barbara the weekend of 2/15/2013, which featured this moment reuniting Northern Arizona University starting goalie Veronika Tsymbler '11 (far left) and starting defense wing Elise Tang '09 (far right) with UC Irvine starting defense wing Amy Yuan '12 (middle left) and starting low defense Savannah Todd '12. All four former Warriors represented their colleges and the Warrior spirit proudly in tournament play.

Elsewhere, Kara Hericks '11 has resumed her scoring ways as a starting attacker for the Army Black Knights, netting two goals in her debut game, a West Point victory over Air Force.

The program is proud to have so many Warriors continuing to play and excel at the collegiate level. Good luck on the heart of lacrosse season to come!
