By Paul Frommelt Centre View

hroughout this season, the Chantilly boys lacrosse team’s T motto was – one more. One more pass, one more shot, one more goal, one more win, one more title. After beating Oakton, 12-5, to win the program’s first ever Virginia state lacrosse title on Saturday night at Westfield High School, head coach Kevin Broderick and the Chargers are left with nothing else to ac- complish. “I guess we have a new motto,” said se- nior defender Mike Quigg. “No more.” So now, only days after adding the program’s first state title to their first Photo by Concorde District title and Northern Region title, there’s nothing else to achieve for this

historic Chantilly team. No team on their Robbie Hammer schedule that they haven’t beat during their 20-0 undefeated season. No titles that they haven’t won. No preseason goal that they haven’t reached. No more.
