About:
This morning, the Bellmore-Merrick 7th and 8th grade lacrosse team took the field in a spirited and competitive game against @beachgirlslax. But this wasn’t just another match—it was a powerful tribute to a young life gone too soon.
The team wore purple in memory of Lazar LaPenna, a beloved young athlete whose impact continues to be felt across the Long Island sports community. The gesture served as a heartfelt reminder of the strength, compassion, and unity that sports can bring.
