Repsnakes Win Capital Box Lacrosse Classic

Fresh off of winning the Maple Leaf Kickoff box lacrosse tournament in Reading, Pennsylvania, the Severna Park Green Hornets 2032 boys lacrosse team won the Capital Box Lacrosse Classic hosted by Madlax in Sterling, Virginia, on February 4.

Coached by Brad Reppert, Derek Howells, Kim Bloomfield and Eric Wedemeyer, the team swept all four games across two days en route to the trophy. On February 3, the Green Hornets team, the Repsnakes, began the tournament by blanking the Threshers Box Lacrosse club from Hampton Roads, Virginia, 13-0 before advancing past the Puffins Box Lacrosse club (the Richmond Hawks) 8-4. Severna Park returned to the Dulles SportsPlex the following day to dispatch Team Money Lacrosse Club from Central, Pennsylvania, 11-1 to advance to the finals, where the Repsnakes beat the Frogmen (Clippers Lacrosse Club) 9-1 to claim the third/fourth grade title.

Throughout the tournament, Severna Park was paced offensively by Caden Howells, Liam Cooke, River Baker, Bryce Arnold and Nathan Feldman. Braxton Reppert, Sammy Coleman, Graeme McDowell, Lawton Bloomfield and Brian Staples also contributed to the scoring. The Repsnakes physicality was put on display by defensive tone-setters Aiden Cooke, Henry Smith, Hunter Slater and George Fewster, while netminders Mark Wedemeyer and Connor Wild combined to allow only 1.5 goals per game.
