East Cobb traveled to the tropical paradise of Columbia, SC to play in our first Carolina Classic hosted by Columbia Natives Lacrosse.

Big improvement over Charlotte!!

Our schedule had some rumbles vs familiar names: Asheville LC, Jacksonville Juice and Columbia Natives. The 🦔s went 2-1 in pool play with a loss to Asheville (new rules: that level of patchouli and mystical chakra should be a DQ in post college ball). Postgame activities included the lazy river 🌴, a 🌋 tour by helicopter and coconut 🥥 eating contest.

Hogs made through it to the Semis, falling to the eventual tourney winner, the mercenaries of Greensboro LC, who don’t wear matching uniforms and can’t order beer 🍻 in bars legally (Team Skittles).

4th Place, whoop whoop. Tropical Columbia MVPs… 🌴 🌴 🌴

Tourney MVP: Connor Hanson - Goalkeeper (Hog Debut!) 🧱

Offense MVP: Will Goodman - Utility Midfield 🔪

Defense MVP: Estefan Lucio - Faceoff Midfield 🔨

Lake Tahoe in Incline Village, NV is next up on July 19th, see you there dirtbags!
