As the girls lacrosse season inches closer, so too does the debut for first time coach, Marlene Boyd, an economy and government teacher at Millikan.
“I became the coach of the girls lacrosse team at the beginning of the school year,” said Boyd, “the team didn’t have a coach and an email went out to the staff seeking interested teachers, so I responded to the email.”
In the ‘21-’22 season, the team went 4-4 overall and 4-2 in Moore League. Then junior Carly Brenner was a top performer on the team, with a total of 18 goals scored throughout the season.
“Our varsity team has a wealth of lacrosse IQ, so I wouldn’t say that any one player is ‘improving’, but varsity is definitely getting stronger,” said Boyd.

The team’s come-up is strong. These players definitely have a lot of potential to achieve with most players scoring above 15 goals all season. The girls have practices where they do agility drills mixed in with strengthening fundamentals and conditioning.
The first season game that the Millikan family can come to support is their Moore League opener here on Mar. 7 at 4:00 PM.

On January 20th Jeremy Tokudomi (The) wrote an article titled “Girls Lacrosse”. The article details some key contributing factors to Millikan’s Varsity Girls Lacrosse team’s upcoming 2023 season. After a very good season last year they are looking to do even better this year and beat their rivals Wilson. This was a very good reminder for me because I had entirely forgotten about the girl’s lacrosse season. Before she became the new head coach I had never heard of Marlene Boyd, but she seems to be doing a great job after stepping up as their new head coach. Now we just have to wait for their season. The girls lacrosse team also had coaching issues last year, so hopefully having their coaching situation sorted out will usher in a new wave of success for the team. They are currently in good position to make a run at the Moore League championship which would be a huge accomplishment for the still young program. Seeing them do well last year was very impressive and this year seems only to have more promise. Their league however is a very tough one, so it will be a difficult battle in the race for the Moore League title.
