The Shoreline Lake Forest Park (LFP) Lacrosse Club was founded in Shoreline, Washington in 2012 by Steve Weaver, a native of the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York, to bring youth and high school lacrosse from the shores of the Puget Sound to the banks of Lake Washington. Recognized as Shorecrest by the Washington High School Boys Lacrosse Association (WHSBLA) since 2013, the Varsity team consists of student athletes primarily from Shorecrest High School and Shorewood High School, and competes as a part of the WESCO Conference.
After folding in 2017, the program reemerged in 2019, and serves both K-12 Boys and Girls programs.

⚡️Captains Announcement⚡️
Kai Sokołowski - Midfield - ’26 - Our returning Captain from last season, Kai has been playing since 2nd grade and has had the opportunity to play with and against some of the top players in the country as part of the 2026 Cityside Blue team. He only got two games in last Spring for us due to injury, but it ultimately made him a stronger leader. His freshman season he made 2nd team All-WESCO Conference with the second most conference points, behind only Sholax and NJIT Attackman Ami Miller ‘23. Kai also serves as one of our youth coaches.
Max Beer - Defense - ’25 - Max started playing lacrosse his sophomore year and made Varsity in only his third week due to his extreme hustle and athleticism. He has quickly gained a reputation for hard-nosed play, and received an All-Conference vote from an opposing head coach in just his 2nd year playing last season. Max also serves as a Captain of the Shorecrest Scots football team.
Oli Dalan - Goalie - ’25 - Oli started playing lacrosse at 7/8 and has been standing firm as our starting last point of defense for the past two seasons. Oli is a regular at the Northwest Goalie Academy.
Ben Markwardt - Longstick Middie - ’26 - Ben has been playing since 3rd grade under Coach Soko, from the North Seattle Blackfish to Shoreline. He played Varsity his freshman season, where he made the switch to full-time LSM. Ben traveled this Summer with the Cityside Red team and will be a youth coach this upcoming season.
Congrats to our 4 Captains for your deserving nods and let’s get to work!

With Fall Ball on the horizon we must go back and give gratitude to all those before us that have contributed towards us being able to play this great sport since folding as a program in 2017. This especially holds true for our fearless Captain and leader of the past three seasons, Pearse Kelly, class of ’24. He gained the constant respect of his team and opponents for his tenacity and physical prowess. His coaches saw immense leadership qualities in the whole of his interactions with teammates, both at practice and on game day, and he held his teams to a high standard regardless of the score or our record. While he will be sorely missed, he has helped pave a way for the future of Shoreline lacrosse, instilled leadership qualities into our next generation, and his legacy will most certainly live on…[Extended version in our bio]
Pearse finished his career with the 2nd most points and goals in Sholax history, and was a 2024 and 2023 1st team All WESCO selection, and a 2022 2nd team selection.
K-12 Youth and High School boys and girls should consider coming out this Fall and learning the ropes with a program on the rise - no experience required. Visit shorelinelacrosse.org for more info, and High School Registration will be open in the near future.
