There has never been a better time to suit up for the Palmyra boys lacrosse team.
Tuesday's reveal of the 2016 Mid-Penn Conference all-stars provided the latest evidence of that.
Defenseman Tyler Gallgaher and FOGO Joey Giordano represented the Cougars on this year's 1st team Mid-Penn All Stars, and first-year head cocah Dave Ondrusek was named Coach of the Year. In total, Palmyra landed four players on the 2016 All-Star list, including second-teamers Jared Richard and Ethan Gain (both attack).
Last season, Giordano was the lone honoree as the FOGO honorable mention.
How the Palmyra boys lacrosse team found unprecedented success
This spring, the Cougars went 13-5 and eared their first-ever District 3 tournament berth. They play No. 7 Trinity today in the opening round at 5 p.m. at Cumberland Valley. Palmyra defeated the Shamrocks, 10-9, roughly one month ago.
Tuesday's winner awaits the victor of No. 2 Manheim Twp./No. 15 Carlisle.
