No. 1 falls but doesn’t drop in Varsity Maine girls lacrosse poll

Kennebunk girls lacrosse falls to Windham but remains Maine’s top‑ranked program

Kennebunk, Maine — In a tightly contested match on Sunday evening, the Kennebunk girls lacrosse squad was defeated by the Windham Warriors, yet the program still holds the state’s number‑one spot in the latest high‑school lacrosse poll.

The game, played at Kennebunk’s home field, saw both teams trading blows in the final minutes. While the Windham line proved a step ahead on the scoreboard, Kennebunk’s resilience kept the match close, keeping fans on the edge of their seats. After the final whistle, the Maine high‑school lacrosse rankings were released, confirming Kennebunk’s continued dominance at the top of the state leaderboard.

“This is a great achievement for the team,” said Kennebunk’s head coach. “Even though the outcome of the game wasn’t what we wanted, the players showed the grit and determination that have earned us this ranking. We’re proud to be recognized as the best program in the state.”

Windham’s coach praised the Kennebunk team for their competitive spirit. “They pushed us hard and forced us to play at our best,” he said. “It was a solid performance by a very strong opponent.”

The loss does not signal a downturn for Kennebunk’s program. With a record of 20‑0 for the season and a roster that has consistently earned all‑state honors, the team remains a juggernaut in Maine lacrosse. The Maine High‑School Coaches Association’s poll, which considers win‑loss records, strength of schedule, and head‑to‑head results, still ranks Kennebunk as the state’s premier girls lacrosse program.

As the season moves into its final stretch, Kennebunk’s players are focused on maintaining the momentum that has kept them at the top. The next game is scheduled for Monday at Windham, where the two teams will square off again, and the outcome could determine whether the ranking will remain unchanged.
