OUR LANCER FH PHILOSOPHY:

1) Do the MOST Good

2) Show the GREATEST Kindness

3) Be the BEST Teammate

EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

Sunday, April 27, 2025… Hello EIMS FH players and families! What an awesome 2-1 win yesterday (Sat 4/26) against Webster Willink. Our Lancers played very well. Each goalkeeper (Ariana and Berrin) had multiple saves. Ariana scored both Lancer goals off of assists from Erika. The whole team played well in all areas of the field. We met our team goals of dodging opponents with a snap right… carrying the ball further… and approaching EVERY 50/50 ball with confidence! They did great with all of this!!

THIS WEEK - We practice at EHS Monday - Friday. NO GAMES THIS WEEK. NOTE: If it is raining heavily any of the practice days this week, we will notify players (via TEAMS) and parents (via text) if a practice will be canceled.

EIMS MUSICAL REHEARSALS - Musical rehearsals will ramp up this week. For all FH players who are also in the EIMS musical, please attend any portion of practices that you can this week. The timing of when you attend — and how long you attend — is up to individual families. All we ask is that FH players who are also in the musical keep us posted via our school district FH TEAMS group about their ability to attend FH practices this week.

BE SURE TO SCROLL DOWN THE PAGE to read this week’s FH updates and be sure to scroll further down to THE WEEK AHEAD to know what is happening each day.

Thx,

Coach Fischer

THE EIMS MUSICAL IS THIS WEEK: How It Impacts EIMS Modified FH

Coach Fischer has already spoken with the Director of the EIMS musical. She has confirmed that we have at 11 FH players involved in the musical this year.

We moved all games originally scheduled for this week to dates later in May. That means we practice at EHS Monday-Friday this week (4/28-5/2).

We understand that certain players will need to leave practices early or may miss our practices altogether this week. All we ask is that players/families clearly communicate with us at least 1 day in advance what is required to fulfill their commitment to the musical the next day (or for the week, if that is easier).

VERY IMPORTANT! We have games on Monday 5/5 and Tuesday 5/6. We expect all players to be at both games. If a player cannot make one or both of these games, a parent should notify Coach Fischer in writing, in advance via text (585-233-2105)

ATTN EHS FH PLAYERS: HOW TO CARPE DIEM 365 (START TODAY!)

We have added a new web page to provide EHS FH players with an easy-to-start and easy-to-manage way to prepare for the Fall FH season. This team is on a path to BIG improvement AGAIN in the Fall 2025 season. However, to reach our goals as a team, each individual player needs to start preparing now. Start small. Be consistent. We can show you how. Click on the button below to get started!

FALL 2024: NYS SCHOLAR ATHLETE TEAM 12 YEARS IN A ROW!

We are pleased to announce that our Fall 2024 Lancer FH team once again earned NYS Scholar Athlete Team honors. This is the 12th year in a row that our team has achieved this honor. Academics are always a priority for our program and we are grateful to have such an amazing group of Student Athletes in our Lancer FH program.

FALL 2024: SECTION V FH TEAM SPORTSMANSHIP AWARD!

This is the fourth time in the past 12 years that Lancer FH has received the Section V Team Sportsmanship Award (2014, 2019, 2022, 2024). The award is voted on by the Greater Rochester Field Hockey Umpire Board. Coach Cooper and Coach Fischer work hard to keep our EHS FH program moving in a positive direction. We are grateful for our awesome players, fantastic parents and supportive Athletic Department. This award recognizes the efforts of players, coaches, parents and our school district in pursuing good character and sportsmanship within athletic programs and in athletic competitions.

FALL 2024: UNITED WE SUCCEED

FALL 2023: SECTION V (DIV 2) COACHING STAFF OF THE YEAR

Lancer Field Hockey Coaches Cooper and Fischer were honored to be named the Fall 2023 Section V Division II Coaching Staff of the Year by our fellow Section V field hockey coaches. It is a testament to the great improvement our very young varsity team made throughout the Fall 2023 season! (DID YOU KNOW? Coach Fischer was also named Section V Division II Coach of the Year in Fall 2016. That was another season of great improvement for our Lancers and also a season in which Coach Fischer coached BOTH the varsity and JV teams.)
