The Lancer lacrosse team this week wrapped up its regular season with a 14-8 victory over Blue Valley West, a win that puts it into contention for a high seed in the Lacrosse Association of Kansas City.

The Lancers have amassed a 15-3 overall record and went 10-2 in the LAKC. Blue Valley North also finished the year at 10-2 in the league. Rockhurst is undefeated at 12-0 and has secured the top seed in the tourney.

Led by Tripp Mohr and William Larson, the Lancers high-powered offensive attack has proven difficult to beat so far this year. But they’ll face stiff competition in the LAKC quarterfinals, which start next Thursday, May 19.

The Lancers program has made it to the LAKC title game every year since the league started its tournament in 2012, winning the championship its first two years. In 2014, the Lancers fell to Rockhurst for the title. Last year, they lost to Olathe East/Northwest in the championship game.
