Boys’ Lacrosse

Boys’ lacrosse expects to reestablish its strength this season, after last year’s young roster finished with a 4-11 overall record. This season, the team is made up primarily of experienced seniors and led by new coach Logan Brown — and they are ready to make a splash in the PAL Bay Division.

“We didn’t have a lot of seniors — maybe three or four — and they were a big help; showing us the ropes on how to be a leader next year,” said senior Archer Grenier, an attacker. “Now we are really senior heavy.”

To help the team improve its skill set, Brown has been focusing on high-repetition passing drills, and said he has already seen results in the three weeks of practice Burlingame has had so far.

The program has also seen a large jump in roster size, with a total of 49 players —  21 on varsity and 28 on junior varsity. The number is a seismic increase from last year, when many players did not return after the pandemic.

The team will play its first game against Junipero Serra High School — now coached by Burlingame’s prior head coach, Ryan Bolanos — at home on Feb. 28. With a formidable roster and plenty to fight for, expect the Panthers to put up a good fight.
