Girls Lacrosse Set for First Ever Postseason Appearance

The current version of the Wilmington High School girls lacrosse team is going somewhere no other Wildcats before them have gone. The postseason.

Wilmington learned its playoff fate on Thursday when the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association announced its pairings for the North Division 2 playoffs.

For the first time ever, Wilmington will be a part of the girls lacrosse postseason, taking on Marblehead in the first round. The Lady Wildcats, earning the No. 15 seed thanks to a 7-9 regular season record, will next take the field on Wednesday against the tournament's second seed.

The winner of that contest will take on either No. 7 Bishop Fenwick or No. 10 Weston in the quarterfinal round.

Wilmington also snagged a spot in the boys lacrosse tournament thanks to a stellar regular season. Those brackets will be announced on Friday.
