This year’s local girls squad will be a combined group of players hailing from across Northern New York and Vermont, while the boys team will be comprised of student-athletes from Saranac Lake and Lake Placid high schools. The teams will kick off their seasons on April 28 at a tournament in Albany. (Enterprise photo — Lou Reuter)
