SAMMAMISH, Wash. – Lucy Williams scored with 1:01 remaining in double overtime to give Lakeside its fourth consecutive Girls Division I Washington state high school lacrosse title in a 14 – 13 thriller over Bainbridge Island, Saturday at Charlie Acosta Field on the campus of the Eastside Catholic School in Sammamish, Wash.
The victory was the seventh overall Girls Division I state championship for the Lions, tying them with Bainbridge who had held the edge since 2002.
In a game that came down to a final possession, Lakeside emerged victorious, consistently recovering from a relentless Bainbridge team and holding the Spartans to just their second lowest-point output of the season.
The winning goal came with time winding down in the second overtime, as Williams caught a crisp Emmy Armintrout pass in front of the net and fired a shot past Spartan goaltender Josefine Wallace for the go-ahead goal. “Emmy told me, ‘Lucy, you need to get open’, so I made a cut and was lucky she made a great pass.” The goal was just the second of the afternoon for the Second-Team All-State senior.
In the first, a stingy Bainbridge defense kept Lakeside in check for most of the half, before consecutive yellow cards forced Spartans’ coach Tami Tommila to replace two top line defenders. With Spartan midfielders now defending, Lakeside connected for two goals in the final minute to take a 6 – 4 halftime lead.
In the second, the Lions again controlled the ball early, scoring three unanswered goals to take a 9 – 4 lead with 16 minutes remaining.
But Bainbridge rallied, scoring five unanswered goals over the next five minutes to knot the game at 9 – 9. “Coming back from a five-goal deficit was quite a momentum changer. I’m proud of my girls for doing that,” said Tommila.
Lakeside then took the lead three separate times in the remaining 8:35 of the game, but Bainbridge responded to each with goals of their own including Jaclyn Biggers’ score on a free-possession shot with just 23 seconds remaining to force the overtime period.
“We knew this game was going down to one possession,” said Lakeside coach Jamie Asaka, who is in her fifth year at the helm of the Lions program. “The team that controls the game at the end and maintains possession was going to win it.” But the end never seemed to appear for the Lions.
In the first overtime, Lakeside’s Katrina Carlsen beat Wallace with just 44 seconds remaining, but Biggers again found the net, this time with just 5 seconds remaining, to force the second overtime. “At that point we needed to deny (Biggers) the ball,” said Asaka. “She’s very poised and has a great stick and great shot.”
In the second extra period, Lakeside won the opening draw and controlled play for most of the period before connecting for the game winner.
Morgan Merriman and Sarah Pollnow had three goals and Sarah Adler had 13 saves in goal for the Lions. In the loss Mariah Walk scored five for Bainbridge.
Scoring:
Lakeside 6 6 1 1 -- 14
Bainbridge 4 8 1 0 -- 13
Highlights: Morgan Merriman, L, 3 goals, 1 assist; Sarah Pollnow, L, 3 goals; Lucy Williams, L, 2 goals; Sylvia Warren, L, 1 goal, 8 draw controls; Katrina Carlsen, L, 1 goal, 2 assists; Sadie Mackay, L, 3 goals; Lauren Blake-Whitney, L, 1 goal; Sarah Adler, L, 13 saves; Mariah Walk, B, 5 goals, 1 assist; Jaclyn Biggers, B, 3 goals; Sally Baumgartner, B, 2 goals, 3 assists; Delaney Larkin, B, 1 goal, 2 assists; Sarah Shea, B, 1 goal; Sydney Whitaker, B, 1 goal; Josefine Wallace, B, 6 saves)

Saturday, May 16 - Eastside Catholic School
SEATTLE – Undefeated Bainbridge Island High School, the top seed Division I prep girls lacrosse team in Washington is set to take-on three-time defending state champion Lakeside, Saturday in one of two featured high school games at the 17th Washington Girls Lacrosse State Championships at the Eastside Catholic School in Sammamish, Wash.
The Girls Division I game, a rematch of last year’s state title game, gets underway at 2 p.m., while the Girls Division II game between top seed Mercer Island and #3 Issaquah gets underway at 11 a.m. Both games are preceded by exhibition games of 7th and 8th grade girls beginning at 9:00 a.m.

The Spartans are undefeated this season with 14 wins in the regular season. The road to the state championship game for the Spartans included a 24 – 4 quarter-final defeat of Lake Sammamish and a 23 – 5 semi-final defeat of Mercer Island.

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, Wash. – Sydney Whitaker scored the go-ahead goal with 4:06 remaining as Bainbridge remained undefeated, upsetting defending state champion Lakeside 10 – 8 in Girls Division I high school lacrosse, Wednesday at Bainbridge High School Memorial Stadium.
With three games remaining in the season, the win elevated the now 11-0-0 Spartans to sole possession of first place in Division I play. The win over Lakeside was the first in four tries for the Spartans, including last year’s 8 – 9 defeat in the state championship game.
The go-ahead goal broke an 8 – 8 tie late in the second half as Whitaker grabbed possession of the ball and patiently rolled around the Lakeside cage looking to distract the Lions defenders. “I wanted to draw the double team,” said Whitaker, whose move caught Lakeside goaltender Sarah Adler off guard. “But I saw an opening and ripped it.”
In the final minutes, Bainbridge added an insurance goal, with Jacklyn Biggers scoring on a Mariah Walk feed to seal the 10 - 8 victory.
“This one came down to the last four minutes,” said Bainbridge coach Tami Tommila, whose team was held to their lowest scoring output of the season by a tenacious Lakeside defense. “We kept hammering on Adler. Things happen when you keep shooting.”
Scoring got underway with the defending state champion Lions striking first at 21:36 on an Emmy Armintrout goal. Bainbridge then scored six of the next seven goals including three by Jaclyn Biggers to take a 6 – 2 lead before Lakeside’s defense tightened, cutting off nearly every Bainbridge penetration into their zone.
Following two Lakeside goals, with Bainbridge ahead 6 – 4 in the final two minutes of the half, the Spartans’ Sydney Whitaker was called for an illegal stick-check giving Lakeside a man advantage. However, the Lions had trouble gaining possession as Bainbridge kept the pressure on Adler with four short-handed shots.
The Lions finally were able to clear the zone and responded with Armintrout converting on a free position shot with 27 seconds remaining to bring the game within one. Four of the Lions’ five first-half goals came on free position shots.
In the second, Lakeside picked up where they left off in the first as Sadie Mackay’s goal at 21:41 knotted the game at six. Lucy Williams then found the net at 16:46 to put the Lions up 7 – 6.
“When they pulled ahead I tried to stay in the moment,” said Spartan goaltender Josefine Wallace, who faced just 13 shots on goal. “I have a great defense that I can depend on. They made the difference.”
The Spartans then scored the next two to take the lead, before Lakeside’s Katrina Carlson knotted the game at 8 – 8 with 11:36 remaining.
In other Division II action at Bainbridge Stadium, Bainbridge Island's Division II girls team downed Lakeside 11 - 6.

April 19, 2009
MERCER ISLAND, Wash. – Mercer Island’s Dan Shields scored the game-winning goal just 33 seconds into the second overtime to boost the Islanders to a 7 – 6 Boys Division I high school lacrosse upset win over undefeated Bainbridge Island, Saturday before an estimated crowd of 1,500 at Islander Stadium on Mercer Island.
Shields, who led all scorers with four goals, emerged as the game’s undisputed hero, netting the fourth quarter’s only goal at 7:35 left in regulation to send the game into overtime.
After playing to a dead-heat in the first sudden death period, Shields took a pass at 3:27 of the second overtime from his brother Matt, who had just picked up his own rebound after hitting the post. His shot beat Spartan goaltender Bryce Stevenson on the off-stick side for the game winner. The goal unleashed the near capacity crowd onto the field in celebration.
“I saw the ball bounce off the post. When I got the ball, the goalie was out of step so I threw it,” said Shields, a second-team All-State selection in 2008 who entered the game as the Division I points leader with 16 goals and 16 assists. “I’ve never had a game winner like that – nothing this big. This will give us a real confident run for the rest of the season.”
Both teams entered the game undefeated in league play, only Mercer Island had non-league losses – all dealt on a four-game spring break road swing through New York. The win advanced the Islanders to 6-0-0 in league play, 8-4-0 overall, for a share of first place with Issaquah in Division I play. The win was the first for the Islanders in three years over Bainbridge.
In the first quarter, the Bainbridge struck first on a goal by Sam Snow at 9:11. The Spartans went on to score three unanswered goals over the next 1 minute, 56 seconds before Shields finally put the Islander on the board with just 1:09 left in the quarter.
In the second, Bainbridge again connected first on a solo-shot by Jordan Wagner. The score was followed by MI goals by Jon Wettack and Shields, but still sent the Islanders into the intermission down 3 – 5.
In the third, Mercer Island fought back to tie the game on goals by Wettack at 3:36 and then Steve Caditz with just 15 seconds remaining. But with just one second to go, Kevin Nguyen beat Islander goaltender Hap Giraud to put the Spartans back up by one.
The fourth remained scoreless until the 7:35 mark when Shields drove from outside of the crease to fire a shot over the right shoulder of Stevenson to knot the game at six goals apiece.
“This is the first opportunity to prove ourselves in the state,” said Mercer Island senior Conner Beckwith who had six ground balls for the Islanders. “It’s been two years since we’ve won this game.”
Islander goaltender Hap Giraud had 15 saves in the win. Bainbridge’s Stevenson had 11 saves in the loss.
The Bainbridge, Mercer Island rivalry dates back 17 years and is one of the most heated lacrosse contests in the state. Since 2001, both teams have faced each other in the state championship five times and at least one of the schools has been involved in the state title game each of the past 18 years.

The two schools entered Wednesday’s game tied for the division lead along with Mercer Island and Issaquah. With the win, Bainbridge kept their place atop the division and advanced to a perfect 7-0 and 5-0 in league play, while Vashon dropped into second place with a 4-1-0 record.
Bainbridge took control early on, shutting out Vashon 3 – 0 in the first quarter on a goal by Kevin Nguyen at 10:57 of the first and back-to-back nets by Sam Snow at 1:10 and :15.
In the second, an aggressive Vashon defense shut down the Spartan attack as Cooper Loraas, Joe Shigle and Gregor Davidheiser all found the net to even the game at three.
Following the intermission, the Spartans turned on the heat, shutting down the Pirates 7 -0 in the third and 6 -2 in the fourth.
The win sets the stage for the Spartans’ match-up, Saturday with Mercer Island that will help determine control of the division in the final push for the state tournament.
