Garden City girls lead the way for FLG Lacrosse!

Caroline Peppard, Julia Kavan and Ann Sullivan were sparks for their FLG Select team this summer!

This was a great season for the FLG Lacrosse Select teams. Caroline Peppard proved to be irreplaceable for the 2016/2017 FLG Select team. Her leadership on and off the field was crucial to the team’s success. The 2018 team was lead by Garden City natives Ann Sullivan, Megan Sprotte and Julia Kavan. Ann used her skills around the crease to put in some big time goals. Julia ran the midfield and thread the needle to assist her teammates in addition to putting the ball in the net herself! Megan was a crucial part of the defense. Director and Coach Robyn Pastuch said of the girls “These girls constantly improved with their team throughout the year, the sky is the limit for this group.” We are very proud of our FLG ladies and can’t wait to get them back on the field!
