On April 21, 2021, the Skyline Women\u2019s Lacrosse Team beat rivals Pioneer High School for the first time in history. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The snowy weather did not impact the intensity of the close game. In the first two minutes, Pioneer had a 2-0 lead over Skyline who quickly recovered, making the score 2-1. The game was always within a few points, the biggest goal differential being three. The final score was 15-14. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ailish Kilbride, a Community freshman, shared this victory with her team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeating Pioneer was such a big accomplishment not only for all of us as individuals but for the program at Skyline,\u201d Kilbride said. \u201cWhen the scoreboard buzzed for the final time the feeling was unmatched! I can\u2019t wait to play Pioneer again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skyline scored 56% of their shots. They stopped 62% of Pioneer\u2019s clears. There were also two yellow cards given to Skyline in this game, each player serving two minutes off the field. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jessica Courtright, Skyline junior, scored six goals and assisted three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cComing into the game, I knew that it was going to be a challenge,\u201d Courtright said. \u201cI was determined to play my best game and everything paid off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another Skyline student, Madi Masek, had tears of joy after the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have never beat [Pioneer],\u201d Masek said. \u201cTo be the first Skyline team to win against them was an unexplainable feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
