Reason we are falling behind is it is a fact that in New Jersey we do not have as many reclasses as new York, Maryland or Southeast Pennsylvania. I understand when they are in high school they all play together and against each other, however still on the club lacrosse scene hold backs are taking over still. There are a couple players/ programs that are buying into the hold back/ reclass idea in New Jersey which is helping them compete and beat those teams. Good for NJ Lacrosse. Lacrosse will go to age within the next few years, right now is it still the wild west and will have 27's going to play on the 28 team and 28's going to 29's. After lacrosse goes to an age based system I believe NJ will compete at every level with those other areas.
