35 St. Francis (Mountain View) and two over No. 37 St. Francis (Sacramento). The win over Poway was Wednesday, a 15-14 thriller that wasn’t secured until junior Michaela Michael scored with just nine seconds to play. Poway has an enrollment of 2,600 students while Menlo has approximately 550. “I am thrilled with the win, for sure,� said Lee. “It got a little hairy/ scary at the end.� Michael finished with nine goals and two assists to set season, game and team highs with 11 points. Michael, who already has committed to USC, finished a two-win week with 18 points and raised her season totals to 85 goals and 16 assists in 11 regulation games and one tournament day. According to MaxPreps, Michael ranks No. 2 in the U.S. in goals and No. 3 in total points (101). She leads the state in goals. Poway and Menlo battled winds that gusted to 30 miles an hour. Poway grabbed an early 3-0 lead but Menlo tied it at 3 with 14:53 left in the half. Poway went up 5-3 before Menlo tied it again as Michael scored her fourth straight goal. Michael added one more in the first half as Menlo surged to a 10-6 lead. In the second half, Poway mounted an attack, and brought it within two in the first five minutes of the half. Menlo seemed to be pulling away at 14-9 with 13:25 left in the game —three goals coming from Michael and one from senior Annie Taylor. Then, Poway turned it on with five unanswered goals to tie the match and set up Michael for the game-winning shot. The Menlo defense welcomed back goalie Hannah Rubin, who had been out with the flu but made many key stops. On Saturday, Menlo went 4-0 and captured their division at the annual Western States CIF Lacrosse Tournament on a rainy day at the Morgan Hill Sports Complex. The results are not included on the Knights’ overall record, due to rain-shortened matches. Menlo won for the fourth consecutive time since it has participated in the event — including 2008, 2010 and 2011. The Knights opened with an 11-2 win over Menlo-Atherton before topping St. Francis (Sacramento), 10-5. In a semifinal shortened by rain and a revised schedule, Menlo defeated Sacred Heart Prep, 11-1. In the championship match, the Knights edged St. Francis (Sacramento) again, this time by only 7-6. Michael led the way with 17 goals and four assists for 21 points on the day. Rubin had some big stops, stuffs, deflections and pure stick saves against all four opponents —all while battling the flu. On the other side of the tournament, Castilleja defeated Thacher School of Ojai, 5-1, for that division’s title. Castilleja carried the momentum from that victory into Tuesday’s (continued on next page)
