HS Lacrosse playoffs underway
Santa Ana Foothill trying to defend its unofficial title.
LA Times (4/30)
The Southern Section doesn't conduct official playoffs for lacrosse -- or any other sport, unless 20% of its member schools participate. But that didn't keep the lacrosse community from organizing its own playoffs, culminating in a May 9 championship game between the Orange County and the North Division boys' champions at Mission Viejo Trabuco Hills.
In last year's inaugural title game, Santa Ana Foothill rebounded from a five-goal deficit and held on in the closing seconds to beat Palos Verdes, 11-10, at the Home Depot Center.
The Orange County semifinals are today, with top-seeded Foothill at fourth-seeded San Juan Capistrano JSerra and second-seeded Corona del Mar hosting third-seeded San Juan Capistrano St. Margaret's. The division final is 7 p.m. Friday at Trabuco Hills.
