Hartland lacrosse fell to Haslett-Williamston in season opener, 12-14.
Hartland Boy's Lacrosse hosted Haslett-Williamston Wednesday night and according to Coach Trenton Gafner, it was a "great" first game to the 2013 season because once the game got going it was a battle to the end. Haslett took the lead to start. Then Hartland had an 8 to 5 lead going into half. But Haslett came out strong in the second half and edged Hartland 14 to 12 to earn a great win. Both teams played with class and was a fun game. We just let it away from us. They seem to capitalize on our mistakes more in the second half and that is what got them the win. "We learned a lot about who we are as a team," Gafner said. "We are excited to get back on the practice field to fix our mistakes. Seasons aren't won in March they are determined …

As the youth competitive team, which began 10 years ago, continues to grow each year, the success and development of the young team is exciting for Puranen who also coaches at the high school level. “Almost 100 percent of our …

By Danna Castillo The MHSAA Semi Finals didn't end the way the Eagles would have hoped. There were plenty of great matches but the Eagles didn't come out on top of this one ending their regular dual season with a still, very impressive 33-2 and their 12th consecutive appearance at the MHSAA Team State Finals.The Eagles were on fire in the Quarter Finals versus #8 Ranked Macomb Dakota.

By Danna Castillo It all leads to Battle Creek. Twelve straight years for Coach Todd Cheney and his Eagles. Not a small accomplishment in anyone's book. The 32-1 third rankded Eagles took on Macomb Dakota (37-4) in what was Macomb Dakota's first appearance in Battle Creek for the MHSAA Team State Finals. The Cougars fell to the Eagles 42-14 in what has been typical Hartland fashion. Winning 10 of the 14 match ups, 4 by pin & 2 by major decision, the Eagles continue to feed off each other and continue to find a way to win. “They had an incredible season, a sad story, they had a purpose to wrestle,” Cheney said referring to the loss of Dakota coach Bill Witgen to cancer in September. “They’ll be back. They should be proud. They’re a …
