Team of the Week: Grand Ledge lacrosse rolling through CAAC play
GRAND LEDGE, Mich. (WLNS) – Coming off back-to-back regional championships, the Grand Ledge lacrosse team has continued to be one of the top teams in the state.
The Comets are off to a 10-1 start this season after a 22-1 win over DeWitt on Thursday, marking seven straight wins for GL.
In the past week, Grand Ledge has outscored CAAC opponents 65-8, which doesn’t include a 21-5 win over East Lansing a couple of weeks ago.
Junior Tieson Cooper committed to play lacrosse at the University of Michigan back in the fall and has been a key piece to a group of players, who have been close since middle school.
“Nothing is too serious we’re all just having fun, playing lacrosse that we’ve been playing for nine, ten years,” Cooper said. so it kind of helps us settle those nerves in big games and you just play lacrosse as a team.”
Head coach Mike Transeth said, “Sometimes they forget we’re at practice and they just think we’re just hanging out like at a buddy’s house because it can get a little loose at times but, yeah, this group has always been fun whenever they’re around each other. Very high energy. Very fun to be around.”
