Pin Oak Lax

During their off-season, Pin Oak Middle School lacrosse coach Austin St. Denis (pictured, at right) kept the players busy and their skills up to speed while having some fun, too. He offered indoor Box Lacrosse games to strengthen stick skills, improve defense skills, and allow the boys to enjoy the game as a team. The boys enjoyed team building while they waited for the season to start. The pace of the games was fast and intense, but the boys had a great time keeping up with one another. Pictured (back row, from left) are Jonathan Lorch, Lee Beasley, Bennett Abaza, Luke George, Nathan Markworth; (front row, from left) William Saindon, Jace Sonnier, Bennett Woolsey, Will Dagley, and Beau Stafford.
