It was an up-and-down week for the Palisades High girls lacrosse team, as they played five games in seven days. The hectic schedule started at home against Westridge on March 15. Six of the team’s seven attackers scored and the Dolphins raced to a 13-7 victory. The next day, Birmingham came to the Stadium by the Sea and the result was largely the same, as juniors Sarah Thorson, Sammi Sharpe and Nicole Gobriel, as well as senior Chelsea Bailey (who will be attending NYU next year) scored the majority of the goals en route to an impressive 15-5 victory. On Saturday, the Dolphins traveled to Laguna Hills for the LA-OC Invitational Tournament, and played a morning-afternoon doubleheader. First, they came up short in a tight match against Laguna Hills, 11-8, and in the afternoon, they fell to Aliso Niguel, 8-2. On Monday this week, Pali came back strong with 19-5 home win over Huntington Park to get back to their winning ways. The Dolphins (6-4) play at Manual Arts and stay on the road with a game at La Canada next Tuesday and Jordan on Wednesday. Pali will finally return home on Friday, April 1 to host its first-ever invitational tournament, the Pali Invitational, where they will take on Peninsula at 5:30 p.m.
