The Gowanda Varsity girls lacrosse team hosted Amherst on April 24. Gowanda started out strong taking a 2-0 lead. They finished the 1st quarter up 3-2 with Envy Cross breaking a 2-2 tie with 2:32 left in the period. By halftime, the game was tied 4-4. A strong Amherst 3rd quarter saw them open up a 9-5 advantage over Gowanda. After a questionable Amherst goal to open the final quarter, Gowanda came back strong, but not enough to avoid their first loss, 12-8.

Felicia Scanlan (#6) opens the scoring putting Gowanda up 1-0.

Envy Cross (#8) breaks a 2-2 tie to put Gowanda up 3-2.

In the 2nd quarter, Hannah Valentine (#7) and Malayna Pawlak (#9) chase down an Amherst player. In the background is #23, Zoe Bartlett.

On Wednesday, April 23, the Gowanda Varsity softball team hosted Pine Valley. Gowanda started out fast with Addison Kota (#2) connecting on her first of 3 home runs in the game. That hit also scored Corrina John (#22) as seen below. Kota also pitched a shutout, 12-0.
