1997-2007
Early Years
1997 The Hillsboro Lacrosse Club started with only
a dozen or so players. Then MBA coach , John Baer-former '76 All-American came to HHS to find boys to play lacrosse. He added a former MBA standout player as coach and the team began practicing at Palmer Park and Bell Meade and only playing away games. It was a tough year, but a win over Father Ryan and hard nosed play earned the Burros a reputation as a gritty, hard hitting team. '97 NOTABLE SENIORS D- Jeff Krebs, M-Wes Martus, G-Luther Tanley, M/FO-Donnie Tidwell.

1998 Now sponsored by HHS English teacher Mr Jeffery Marks, the Burros started playing thier first home games on 10 Ave S beind the MNPS storage building.With new players, "Burro Lax" jerseys, trips to Knoxville and Bell Buckle, a varsity team was beginning to take hold at Hillsboro. '98 NOTABLE SENIORS A-Andy Moore, M-Van Koomen, M-Neil Stinson
