By Mike Zacchio

In addition to being named this week’s Con Edison Scholar-Athlete of the Week, Murray was part of the Indians’ first win over Yorktown since 1996, and she was accepted into her dream school, Northwestern University, for next season.

“It was always a big dream, I just never thought it would become a reality,” Murray said. “I knew academics was a huge thing I looked for, in addition to the athletics.”

With a 91.75 average and a 2,190 SAT score, Murray should fit in well with the rest of the Wildcats.

Northwestern is a athletic powerhouse as well, winning six of the past seven NCAA championships for women’s lacrosse.

“I did a lot of camps and tournaments and just put myself out there,” she said. “I think the coaches got a good look at me in my sophomore year.”

From her dream school to a dream win during the season, Murray is still in shock.

“It was one of our goals, and we had the revenge sitting in the back of our heads.” she said about beating Yorktown.

Murray said it was more in the mind than physical defeating the ’Huskers for the first time in nearly two decades.

“We really got over our mental fear of (Yorktown),” she said. “The win is definitely a big one.”

Of course, a section championship would be even bigger.

“I’d love to go as far as we can,” Murray said. “We put the work in and I think we deserve it.”

Despite a tough road to the championship, Murray says it’s anyone’s game.

“Class B is pretty much up for grabs,” she said. “It will come down to who wants it more and who’s meshing the most at the time.”

Murray takes after her older brother, Ryan, a junior at Colgate. She’s a three-sport athlete in cross country, basketball and lacrosse, the same sports he played.

The Con Edison Athlete of the Week recognizes students in Westchester and Putnam schools who excel athletically. Academic achievements, leadership, citizenship, school and community activities are also factors. The winner is selected each week by a panel of athletic directors and coaches who review ballots submitted by each athlete’s AD or coach.

Senior Bianca Raniolo had four goals and two assists to advance No. 7 Yorktown to the semifinals with a 12-10 victory over No. 2 John Jay on the road. Senior Katie Frederick had 11 saves for the Huskers.

John Jay senior Lauren Murray had four goals, including her 175th, to become the second all-time scorer for the Indians, behind Casey Bocklet.

Last Saturday was a very busy day in the girls lacrosse world, but there are several girls who deserve recognition for their milestones in Harrison’s 19-8 win over Croton-Harmon (also their senior game).

Senior captain Alexandra Misisco (#13 below) scored her 125th goal, finishing with four goals and three assists in the victory.

“Once we looked over the stats, we figured out that I was past 100,” said Misisco, who joined the varsity team as a freshman and reached the milestone on her final goal of that game. “It’s a good feeling. It’s nice to see that I succeeded on the team in my time here.”

Joining her was senior captain Christie Nannariello who had five goals and one assist to reach 50 for her varsity campaign, and senior Cassidy Cohen, who also reached 50 goals by scoring four in the win (which is very impressive since she suffered a season-ending  ACL injury in soccer last year).

Roughly two weeks earlier, Angela Troia scored her 50th goal against Westlake.

Congrats to the girls who are not only league champions with a 12-3-1 record, but who have come a long way since their 0-16 season last year.

“They have improved tremendously this season,” said two-year varsity coach Jon-Erik Zappala. “Our team pulled it together and played well in the second half (against Croton-Harmon). I was proud of my team and also excited to see the transformation of Croton-Harmon since our last game (against them). We look forward to keeping this momentum up throughout the sectional play.”

Added Misisco, “We’re hoping that we’re going to get a good seed so that our first game will be home so we can get a lot of fans. I think it will be different than the competition we have seen so far; we’re going to have to take it game by game.”

It’s somewhat of a slow night, so here is what we have so far…

Written by Mike Zacchio

If the past is any indication, Hackley’s Trish Gorman should probably steer clear of basketball courts forever.

This week’s Con Edison Athlete of the Week has made a name for herself on the lacrosse field, but as she closes in on the school’s scoring record, Gorman has been forced to do so with a serious basketball-related injury for the second consecutive season.

In a basketball game last season, Gorman planted her foot wrong while going up for a left-handed layup seconds before halftime and ended up tearing the ACL in her left knee.

“I went down screaming, but I didn’t think it was my ACL,” she said. “I could still walk around on it.”

After a week and a half, nobody still believed it was her ACL — not even her father.

“It never swelled or anything. My dad took away my crutches and made me walk because he thought I was faking,” she jokingly said.

Despite the injury, Gorman played through the lacrosse season.

“To miss a season would be too much,” she said. “Plus, I got a sweet yellow knee brace that matched my stick.”

After rehabilitating from surgery over the summer, Gorman was back on the court in the NYSAIS semifinals for the Hornets. Then, just two days before getting her brace off for good, the unthinkable happened.

“As soon as it happened I got up and went to turn and I knew something wasn’t right,” she said.

Gorman had torn the ACL in her right knee on the same court, and in the same spot on the court where she tore her left ACL a year earlier.

“Within a week I had a brace on. This time I got a black one,” she jokingly said.

Again, Gorman decided to play through the lacrosse season.

“I just ice it and it’s fine,” she said.

In addition to her accolades for the Hornets, Gorman also takes on a rigorous college prep schedule that includes several AP courses.

Gorman will attend the College of William & Mary in the fall, but not because of athletics.

“They have such great academics, and that was my first criteria in choosing a school,” Gorman said. “I love the school spirit and community — the atmosphere is awesome!”

Gorman still plans on playing lacrosse for the Tribe following knee surgery over the summer.

The Con Edison Athlete of the Week recognizes students in Westchester and Putnam schools who excel athletically. Academic achievements, leadership, citizenship, school and community activities are also factors. The winner is selected each week by a panel of athletic directors and coaches who review ballots submitted by each athlete’s AD or coach.
