GIRLS Top 20 Preview: #18 The Blake School

Reminder: our list is based off of the laxnumbers ranking list…here.

You want excellence? The Blake School of Exellence has plenty of it.

What They Were

8-7, 73.25 Lax Number Rating against a 72.45 Lax Number Schedule.

#5 seed in Section 5. They lost to #1 BSM 17-4 in the section semifinal.

What They Lost

7/19 on last year’s team were seniors and have moved on to more things of excellence. Seems like a large percentage…hopefully someone at Blake can have their accountants run the numbers for us on that.

Cynthia Lyman - M: 62g/18a/80 points, 68 GB/76 FT/116 DC (this seems like…a lot of production)

Lola Palestrini - A: 24g/35a/59 points

Piper Crow - GK: 8-6, 40.7%, 12.24 GAA

What They Have Coming Back

2025 Jada Chenitz - D: 5g/2a/7 points, 27 GB/18 FT/9 DC

2028 Izzy Krejci - A: 25g/3a/28 points

2025 Charlotte Palmby - M: 22g/6a/28 point, 25 GB/11 FT/40 DC

What They Have Looking Forward

No girls lacrosse schedule out for Blake in the IMAC…are they co-oping with someone (we see that Breck doesn’t have a girls lax schedule posted either…a merging of Blake/Breck?) Did we just start this rumor?

Our Take

Lets pretend that Blake is NOT going to co-op with someone…for now. This is definitely a transition year for the Bears. We like to see some noise from their 2028 class already. Tough to say a lot until we get some idea of what is going on with them this season, and while Section 5 isn’t easy, we don’t see a path for them to fall below the 5 seed in the section.
