The first game of the season was a wild adventure for the Davie girls lacrosse team. Lyndsay Davis scored the game-winner in a 12-11 overtime decision against visiting Southwest Guilford on Feb. 25 after the War Eagles had squandered a four-goal lead.
It was a good start with Davie coming off a 7-12 season in which it graduated seven seniors.
“We only have six girls that are returners, so the rest of our team is pretty much brand new to the sport,” third-year coach Haley Hines said. “So for us to pull out that win, it was good to see.”
Davis (eight goals, one assist) and Kimber Holston (one goal, four assists) had their fingerprints all over the win, especially on the game-winning play.
“The last play in the overtime was absolutely beautiful,” Hines said. “Kimber had it and passed it to the other senior, Lyndsay, and it was a beautiful quick stick right into the goal. I looked at my Fitbit and my heart rate was 145. I was like: ‘Y’all are going to give me a heart attack.’”
Davis, who has committed to Sweet Briar College (Virginia), and Holston are the only seniors on the team.
“They were the dynamic duo in the game for sure,” Hines said.
Kayden Richardson had two goals and one assist, while Lila Moore had one goal and two assists.
