Dock Lacrosse 

Pioneers - 1 

Bishop Shanahan - 19 

Pioneers lacrosse team headed into the first round of districts today against Bishop Shanahan High School in Downingtown and lost nineteen to one.  Tough lost for the Pioneers as this ends our season.  

Pioneers were led by Kenzie Derstine who scored one goal, Abby Mellinger had two shots on goal, and Olivia Zaskoda also had a shot on goal.  Pioneers had five draw possessions and four ground ball pick ups.  Pioneers goalie Haley Harper made four saves. Pioneers end their season with a record of ten wins and eight losses and finished third in the league.  

Though our season ended today we remember the great memories we made this season and how hard we worked to reach our goals this year, we had great team spirit with positive attitudes, everyone to score a goal, give hundred percent effort in practices and games, and communicate effectively.  

We want to remember our seniors - Kenzie Derstine, Olivia Zaskoda, Megan Wenzel, Kayla Godshall, Haley Harper, and Marina Ferrier Genoves. It was just three years ago that this program has started and each year we have gotten stronger and reached district playoffs each of those years - Congratulations and thank you for all your efforts over the last three years to make the program great, you will be missed!

We also want to thank our team mom's - Renae Derstine, Charity Veltre, and Laurel Harper - who helped organize and be there for our team functions, senior night, snacks, games, and snack stand.  Thank you to all the parents and fans who came out to our games this year, its been exciting to watch this team develop and succeed on many levels, thank you for the support.  Thank you to the athletic staff who set up and clean up each game and help with things that need to be done during the week and at games, its greatly appreciated. 

We will always remember the 2023 Dock Lacrosse Season!
