While all Section 11 played each other plus
New Canaan Ct.
Christian Brothers N.Y. sec3
Suffern N.Y. sec1
West Genesee N.Y. sec3
Wilton Ct.
So 47 teams in suffolk played a total of 5 teams from outside N.Y. , and very few from neighboring Nassau. The catholics, on the other hand only have 6 schools but played 10 from outside N.Y. and schools from both Nassau and Suffolk including Manhasset, Carden City, and Farmingdale. So i ask who really plays a "small pond of lax players"?

Crickets...

I'm guessing that no one replied because the thread was discussing the individual athletes challenging themselves at tryouts against similar age athletes from other areas on LI. NOT the HS games, scheduled by coaches, where the student athletes have no choice but to compete...


This is riveting... Imagine having this much time on your hands to compile such nonsense..... very impressive
so your going to jump 8n the middle of a conversation that you obviously haven't been following, and make a comment that shows just what an [lacrosse] you are

This list is MEANINGLESS!! The public schools are limited with their schedules and can only afford MAYBE one or two games out of conference. It is also a financial issue, The girls usually have to fund raise to pay for the trip! Furthermore, there is way more talent and competition in the public schools. St. A's is the only school with consistent talent in the catholics! All that being said, the discussion was about who were the best INDIVIDUAL players. It is hard to be considered the best if you don't tryout to play with and against the best!
