🏆 HALL OF FAME 🏆
We are beyond proud to announce that Head Coach John Laden has been selected for induction into the National Interscholastic Lacrosse Coaches Association (NILCA) Hall of Fame — Class of 2026!
A Long Island native and Chaminade High School standout, Coach Laden has given more than 30 years to this game at the high school, college, and international levels. He built West Forsyth into one of Georgia's most respected programs — leading the Wolverines to their first-ever state championship in 2023, earning NILCA National Coach of the Year that same season, and guiding our boys to Elite Eight runs in 2017, 2019, 2024, 2025 and 2026.
This October he'll be honored alongside a distinguished national class of coaches at the Milleridge Inn in Jericho, NY, right back on his home Long Island turf.
Congratulations, Coach. West Forsyth wouldn't be West Forsyth without you! We're so lucky to have you shaping our players on and off the field. So well deserved.

👑 Most Valuable Player — Jack Schenkemeyer '26
Two-time MVP. Two-time Captain. And quite simply — one of the best West Forsyth has ever had.

If this week made anything clear, it’s that the rest of the world is catching on to what we’ve known all along. A USA Lacrosse Academic All-American. The Forsyth County Boys Lacrosse Player of the Year. And now, your West Forsyth Lacrosse MVP.

Excellence in the classroom. The best in the county on the field. A leader his teammates, coaches, and teachers all look up to. Jack has done it all — and he’s done it the right way.

Jack, what you've done for this program will be remembered for a long, long time. Thank you for everything.
