takes the field tonight for the first time this year. Our first Lax Gameday graphic features Pat Boyce, the head coach of the lax team who recently passed away. He’s described as a mentor, a legend, and a best friend to many. Tonight, we play for him.

And last but not least, Zach Hill! A true leader in every sense of the word, Zach never put himself above the team and was an enormous contributor for all 4 years! Next year he will be playing football at Mercyhurst University. Congrats Zach! 🍊🥍
To end the week we have the relentless Luke Clifford. Luke was in many opposing midfielders nightmares! A tenacious on ball defender and a BEAST at attacking the groundball. Next year Luke will be studying Marine Biology at Coastal Carolina University. Big thanks Chip! 🍊🥍🦈
We had a few school records broken on Friday.
Congrats to Ayden Hanna on breaking both the career goals and career points records. Also in the same game congrats to Will Musgrove on breaking the career assist record! Way to go!!
Celebrate our young men and women who will soon serve our country in the U.S. Armed Forces. Olentangy Orange and Olentangy Liberty High Schools will host their 2nd Annual Military Signing Day tomorrow at 7 pm at OOHS. Registration at 6 pm.
