At the 2023 Prom, Class of 2023 graduates Joe Marlo and Will Barry stay at the edge of the main floor to do their dancing. Because the small dance floor was the most crowded area, many students gathered around the edges with friends or in small groups.

Lancers silence the Patriots in walk-off fashion

The Lancers matched up with the Patriots of Parkway South for the second day in a row, coming off a 6-5 victory Tuesday.

Things got rolling quickly for the Lancers, as they jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. However,  sophomore pitcher Cole Dupont ran into some trouble in the second inning, giving up a home run and allowing a total of five runs to score.

Despite the set back, the Lancers rallied back in the second half of the inning to tie up the score at five.

Defense and solid pitching dominated the rest of the game for both teams. Dupont found his groove, keeping the Patriots scoreless for the rest of the game.

Determined to keep their winning streak alive, the Lancers entered the bottom of the seventh inning with their bats alive.

Senior William Dupont quickly got on base to lead things off. Two at-bats later, senior Kyle Hanlon hit a single into left field, allowing the speedy Dupont to score the winning run all the way from second base.

The final score, for the second day in a row, was 6-5, another Lancer victory.
