The lacrosse lifestyle is starting to permeate throughout Bethlehem Catholic's program and head coach Kody Rivera hope that pays off with better results this spring.
Rivera's club went 1-14 last season but the hopes for the young program is to have a continued development and that starts with the mentality of its players.
"The team is finally finding their identity and becoming a true team," said Rivera. "The players are bonding on and off the field and the lacrosse lifestyle is being adapted by all. Players are becoming more and more dedicated to the team."
Back in the fold for the Hawks are seniors Andrew Kolowitz (MF), Mark Hlavinka (MF) and Brady Friend (D).
A large sophomore group highlights Rivera's roster, as Colin Redington (MF), Liam McGregor (MF), Matt Arnold (MF), Liam Foley (ATT), Anthony Parise (ATT), Jack Benedict (D) and Nate Bennett (D) fill out the roster. Freshman attacker Vince Borrelli also figures to be in the mix.
"We are a team with a ton of potential, young talent and a lot of youth," Rivera said. "We just need to improve our team camaraderie and discipline."
