Lacrosse players give back

Members of the Memorial Girls Lacrosse Beagles team (pictured) take a break at practice to show off their bright red noses, in honor of Red Nose Day. The Spring Branch Middle School and Memorial Middle School seventh-grade girls wore the bold accessory to support a fundraising effort aimed at ending child poverty. After clowning around, the Beagles headed back onto the field to prepare for the last games of their winning season. The red-nosed lacrosse players are (top row, from left): Caroline Holub, Cate Biar, Lucy Knauth, Naomi deLemos, Nikki Polocheck and Anna Frederickson; (bottom row, from left): JJ Robertson, Morgan Pattillo, Arianna Pramudji and Abigail Tomaski.
