Congratulations to 2025 BHS graduate Tori Strines on her second collegiate no-hitter this season! Impressive — but not surprising! We always knew she was a star. Keep it up, Tori!

The Lady Spartans JV lacrosse team showed strong development and composure in their recent 14–0 defeat against Avon. Offensively, they demonstrated good passing and did a nice job growing throughout the game. Defensively, they became more aggressive as the game progressed and effectively kept opponents out of the 8-meter area, limiting quality chances.
The Varsity girls took the field and lost 2-16 versus the Avon Eagles. Even though the score was looped sided, the Spartans tried many new players in offense and defense positions. Throughout the game, Boardman showed flashes of being the team they can be. The Spartans look to rebound this coming Monday at Spartan Stadium against Poland 6PM.
