Let me throw this question out there...This kid was ranked the #7 recruit in the country in his class by Inside Lacrosse and was the only Long Island player listed in the Top 25. Was this recognition based more on his high school or club experience?
Ranking had nothing to do with where this boy wound up - in fact probably the other way around - knowing that Duke was one of several in the picture helped his ranking. Most of these boys on the list were already committed (announced or not yet announced) to top tier programs before the list even came out which leads me to believe the joker who puts the list together is just following where the commitments have been or where they are expected to be. All about page views from you lemmings who love to follow that crap. Rankings are probably the worst thinkg that could have happened to this sport - both high school teams and individual players.
