After a great weekend and being named Regional Champions, Coppell boys lacrosse team is now heading for their chance for a back to back state champions this coming weekend May 8 to May 9.
On May 1, the Cowboys played the Highland Park DII team and easily won 12-2. After being ahead 10-1 in the first half, Cowboys mainly played defense in the second in order to keep a high lead over the Scotts. Goals were made by juniore Trent Dennington, Preston Allison, Tyler Landis and Nate Hruby.
After beating the Scotts, Coppell played Plano West on May 2 for the regional finals. The score was 10-5 with goals made by juniors
Dennington, Allison, Landis, Alec Lucas and Senior Hayden Hawk. While the score was not as bad as against the Scotts, the Cowboys guaranteed them a shot to defend their State title in the following weekend of May 8-9.
As of today, location, time and opponents have yet to be determined but semifinals will be played on May 8 in Dallas, Tx. Check this website later in the week for accurate information.
