Devens, Mass. — It was an amazing Sunday for Equinox Lacrosse as the 26/27 and 28/29 grade year girls’ teams turned in standout performances at The Chill, a college recruiting tournament hosted by RevEvents in Devens, Massachusetts on Oct. 18 and 19.
The Equinox 26/27 team capped off a dominant day by bringing home the championship, battling through a competitive field that featured some of the strongest club teams from across New England. The group’s teamwork, hustle, and determination were on full display as they earned the top spot in their division.
The 28/29 team also impressed, going toe-to-toe with high-level competition and showing major growth throughout the tournament. Their energy and resilience caught the attention of spectators and college coaches alike.
Athletes from Burr and Burton Academy and Mount Greylock Regional High School played key roles for Equinox, representing their schools and communities with pride.

“It was a great day for both teams,” said Coach Stripp, head coach of Mount Greylock High School and the Equinox 26/27 team. “The girls worked hard, supported each other, and played with confidence against some really talented programs. We’re proud of the way they represented Equinox Lacrosse.”
