Phillips Middle School Boys Lacrosse team finished an undefeated OPAC season as Conference Champions.  Their only loss of the season was a close matchup between (non-conference), currently undefeated, Ravenscroft Middle School in Raleigh – where they fell 9-8. Phillips was up by two points at half time giving Ravenscroft quite a scare.  According the Raven’s head coach,” It was the closest matchup so far, for them this season”. 

Phillips Middle School was coached by Ian Grady, a former Green Hope High School, All State, All Conference, Attackman who went on to play lacrosse at the collegiate level for Saint Joseph’s University. This team was made up of 17 eighth graders who are anxiously, anticipating, playing for East Chapel Hill High School next year!

The Phillips Middle School lacrosse team that feeds East Chapel Hill enjoyed another highly successful season in 2010, finishing in a tie for the OPAC championship. Coach Ian Grady, a student at Elon University and a member of their nationally ranked club lacrosse team, did an excellent job leading the Falcons this year. Great job, Falcons! Now work hard over the summer as you become WILDCATS!
