Photos: Dutch “Yellow Out” For a Fellow Teammate In Victory
Last Thursday, May 20, the Guilderland Dutchmen girls lacrosse team faced off against Colonie on the field but the Dutch’s mind was also thinking of their fellow teammate Jenna Meier who's battling Ewing’s Sarcoma. Each player was wearing a small yellow ribbon on their jersey, both Colonie and Guilderland. Guilderland held on to win 12-to-10.
