The Calvert Hall boys and McDonogh girls each won their conference lacrosse titles, but they came at it from different directions.
Bryan Kelly's Calvert Hall team was trying to be the first team to win the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference title three years in a row. The Cardinals got the job done.
McDonogh had a different focus this season. The Eagles saw their 198-game winning streak that stretched throughout nine seasons end with a loss to Notre Dame Prep in the Interscholastic Athletic Association of Maryland A Conference title game last spring. McDonough brought in former superstar Taylor Cummings, who was a dominant player for the Eagles and at the University of Maryland, to be its new head coach. McDonogh was starting over again, but the Eagles still achieved their goal.
