The Hartland boys lacrosse team hosted Salem High School on Wednesday night coming away with wins for both the varsity and JV teams.

• Hartland JV won 11 to 2.
• Hartland Varsity won 12 to 10. 

"It was a team victory from start to the end," Assistant coach Trenton Gafner said. "When things weren't going our way, the team knew that we had to stick to our game plan and things would work out."

After losing a close game to Haslett last week in the fourth quarter, Gafner said the coaching staff has been stressing to the team to play together and trust each other.

"Tonight we played our first game as a family and that is really important that it happened so early in our season," he said. "The true test will be can we fix our mistake and have the same drive we did last week at practice tomorrow. Only time will tell."

• Dalton Reiche led the way scoring 6 goals
• Alec Bain had 1 goal & 1 assist
• Andrew Skowyra have 2 goals & 1 assist 
• Chris Griffin had 2 assist
• Nathan Lipon had 1 goal
• Jake Gaines had 1 goal
• Dane Bourdo had 1 goal & 2 assist
• Will Highland had 1 assist 

Defense playing better making the adjustments Coach McGurie asked of them and there was in improvement int he team's rides and clears from last game. 

"Tyler DeClerq played well and got his first varsity will as a goalie with saves but his passing was great," Gafner said. "Just an overall good feeling for #Team11."
