    Herriman has a lax team?

    Herriman’s 2 pass goalie play wrecks any PG behind the back goal…

    • Laxman

      Umm… ’cause goalie… to middie… to attack boring basic shot somehow trumps faceoff to juke and behind-the-back to score? One less step, plus an incredible juke and then amazing goal? I guess we’re not surprised you are Herrimanswag – your name tells the story. Kudos for supporting your team. Now how about giving honest credit where it’s due?

      They only showed Herriman’s highlight cause it was their only goal of the game.

  • Pierce Walker

    The fact that there is only one female lacrosse highlight should go to show how good Chersten actually is. 

  • Laxman

    Michael Perry no question – What an amazing move and amazing shot!

    • Kirt Dirt
