The Hylax 4U Lady Hornets, a lacrosse team of fourth-grade girls from West University Elementary School, recently competed in a close game in Cypress against Cy Fair. Although they lost by just one point at the final buzzer, the players and their coach, Annie Schaefer, were proud of their hard work and determination. Coach Annie, a lacrosse star from Episcopal High School, is leading the Lady Hornets through their first season. Pictured (from left) are Greta Seidel, Meg Wright, Scarlett Formidoni, Sloane Nicodemus, Collins Pittman, and Emma Hughes. The team is already making a name for itself with the players’ dedication to the game of lacrosse.
