It took just three games into the 2023 season for Yorktown Coach Jenny Tran to realize her team wasn’t going to repeat as Virginia Class 6 girls’ lacrosse champions.
The Patriots were facing Battlefield. The previous matchup between the teams came in the 2022 state final. Tran’s team won that game so handily the contest required a running clock. The rematch brought the opposite result. Yorktown, decimated by offseason departures, lost by 13 goals.
