The Acalanes girls Varsity lacrosse team soundly defeated Alhambra on Friday Night at home by a score of 19-3.  This was an effort by the entire team.  Olivia Pelligrini played strong in goal, and the Acalanes defense led by CoCo Fellner allowed few shots on goal throughout the game.  The offense also had a strong night; goals were made by 9 different players, led by Maile Broad and Lauren Westergren.  Although Alhambra was outplayed throughout the evening, the players, coaches and spectators visiting from Alhambra maintained a positive spirit throughout the night and it was a pleasure to host them.
