Few people are untouched by the tragedy of suicide, which is the third leading cause of death among teens.
Central Bucks Girl’s Lacrosse Varsity Head Coach Maggie Stella knows this, and wanted to do something to remind students struggling with depression that they are not alone in their struggle. So, the fifth grade teacher at Doyle Elementary School brought LAX 4 Life to Central Bucks East Wednesday night.
Between games against Central Bucks South, where girls from both teams wore LAX 4 Life shirts during practice drills, Stella asked for a moment of silence in honor of those lives lost and spoke about how suicide touched her life.

Local Ellis County resident Allison Clark is on a mission to preserve the Johnson-Yates strain of the Colonial Spanish mustang, with only 10 left from that strain and 1,600 left of the Colonial Spanish in the world.
Clark has been on this journey for over eight years, but her love for horses began when she was 14.
Clark s Horse History When I was 14 years old, my mom took me to a farm called Karma farms located in Marshall, Texas, owned by a lady named Vickie Ives to pick out my first horse, Clark shared. All the horses were colonial Spanish mustangs. That day, Vickie had a few different horses for me to choose from. I rode each one of them. But there was one in particular that stood out to me. She was a mare named Bucks Girl; she was a 100 percent from the Johnson-Yates bloodline. Her color was so unique, and riding her was like the most incredible feeling. I knew she was different. So I took her home to Red Oak.
