s the winter chills fade, spring weather rolls in with eager athletes ready to play. Spring sports have officially begun and the charger athletes are putting in the work.

The Front Field
Lacrosse took a slow start with many rainouts. However, they began their season with a jamboree and triumphant wins over Kirkwood, Parkway West, and Eureka. Even with some obstructing construction, the lacrosse team has persevered with a slight detour along Gravois. Opposing teams may call it an eyesore, but the players prefer to say that it adds character. Today we have the lacrosse team captain and Rockhurst commit, Anna Loeffelman. She is here to share her opinions and outlook on the season. Anna shared, “I’m so excited for this season, we’ve all played together for a long time and I think the team chemistry is amazing. We are ready for anything this season and have a lot to prove.
