     The State Lacrosse Championships came to a thrilling close at Stevenson University last night with the Severna Park Boys and Churchill Boys battling until the last second as Severna Park netted a buzzer-beater to prevail 7-6 for their seventh state crown.  Joining the Severna Park Boys in successfully defending their 2016 title was the Glenelg Girls who topped C. Milton Wright  in posting their fourth overall state crown.  Another regular to the state scene is the Century Girls who handled Fallston, 13-5 and earned their seventh state championship trophy.  Click on the links below to view a summary of the State Final and Semifinal results and official game stats, as well as the complete brackets for each gender and classification.
