Sacred Heart Academy lacrosse plans to put a whoopin' on Trinity High School

My awesome niece Maggie Meiners and the equally incredible Izzy Craig, both seniors at Sacred Heart, shared details of their upcoming charity lacrosse match vs. Trinity High School.

And they mind being teased about being spoiled by their cushy birth positions as the family's baby girls!

Speaker 3 (03:04):
And so the baby of my family? My siblings say,
I get like Patty caked and whatever, like they I
get treated like a princess and everyone else doesn't. And
that's what my family says, but I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
But it's all comparative. Yeah, you know, you only know
is his experience. Yeah, the other kids, they were probably
up chopping wood and feeding chickens and flowing fields before
they went to school.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
I mean they got four years before I was born,
so they got all that princessness then, and then I
got the princesses now since something they all want at home.

it's the the lost and boits. We're that way with great.
She's a junior in college, just like the last one. Maggie.

and and my brother is Mike Miners. But does he
is that tough on your brother to have the same name?

Speaker 2 (04:11):

Speaker 2 (04:48):
So every year the Sacred Heart lacrosse team plays Trinity,
their boys lacrosse team, we play a lacrosse game raising
money for like whatever organization we want to. This year,
we're raising money for Best Buddies. Best Buddies is an
international organization that establishes a global volunteer movement that creates

(05:12):
opportunities for one to one friendships, integrated employment, leadership development,
inclusive living and family develop and family support for individuals
with intellectual and developmental disability.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
I've seen people with those those partner dogs and their
Best Buddies. That's impressive. Yeah, that's a great organization. Yeah,
now is see how is this fair for you to
have to play lacrosse against these churlish Trinity boys.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
So those churlish Trinity boys have to actually use their
I think they have to use their left hand maybe,
but they also have to use like girl sticks girls
rules can't push, like, can't be that physical. I got
goggles and everything, and it's it's so funny watching them play.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
And there's no restraint on you from turning it into
a brawl.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
Yeah, let's say restraints on us. Definitely, there won't be
any pushing on our side. But yeah, super fun.
