Amy Willerford, Sonia Olson, Katie Usellis, and Robin Hilderman join BCB host Charlie Hanacek for an insightful view into the world of girls lacrosse on Bainbridge Island. Since 1993, BHS Girls Lacrosse has qualified for the State Championship 18 times, and has won the championship nine of those times. All four captains are seniors at BHS and are excited about the upcoming season. Each one of them has been playing lacrosse since they were in elementary school.
