Palatine, which started its girls varsity lacrosse team five years ago, won its first Mid-Suburban League championship on Monday with an exciting 9-8 victory at Barrington.

“The girls played extremely hard and have improved so much,” said Pirates coach Leslie Schock, who started program five years ago.
Palatine goalkeeper Veronika Metanova made 19 saves for the champs while freshman Bridget Silveira added 3 goals.
