Demma Hall’s “aha” lacrosse moment took place years ago, she said, while playing catch outside with her sister, Madi, and father, Matt.
Hall, now a senior at Century High School, remembers it as being one of the first times she had ever picked up a stick. While learning the fundamentals from her family members, Hall said, she misread a pass and the ball struck her in the head.
That’s enough to send even the bravest little child racing back inside or bursting into tears. But Hall had a different reaction.
“I just dropped my stick and started laughing,” she said.
