BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) CHAMINADE Lacrosse. Stories and news.

You are making a lot of assumptions about a situation you obviously know nothing about.

The other players did not know. This is not the culture. This was an oversight by the AD who should have been aware of the situation.

Given the talent pool, the coaches certainly do not have to break the rules and risk the season to field a competitive team. The rules were violated and the consequences are clear. This was not a case of malicious intent but rather ignorance and incompetence.

This is a much bigger deal than the eligibility issue.

Keep Syosset out of this toolbox. No dog in the fight. This is a terrible situation for many kids and families, especially the seniors.

Game should be played even if only as a "scrimmage."

I heard self reported right before Chaminade Championship game for a reason. Catch my drift.... they will try to hold the trophey and call it "Forfeit"

I do not understand why a SA kid is repeating a grade. If he was failing, how was he able to stay at SA? I thought, and I could be wrong, that if you don't pass, they send you back to public school. Did they make him repeat 10th grade at SA and not send him back to public so they could keep him on the team?

I thought I saw another post (maybe in the Boys HS forum) where someone corrected the record to say he did not repeat 10th grade at St A, but that he attended 9th grade in public, repeated 9th at St A,, and then progressed through his next three years at St A as appropriate.

Its funny that you try and bring Syosset and Port into this. This is a administration issue within a Catholic school system that has shown to be so flawed. I dont know how an attorney will solve any issue. Its a game that wont be played. The issue is with this year and this particular players eligibility. How could the schools administration and coaches not be aware of the situation. As a matter of fact how could the parents and player not be aware of the infraction. I find it hard to believe they waited till the last game to report it. Something smells a bit fishy here.

brought from Boys HS site>

Let me get this straight ... this player finished 7th grade and the following school year went to 9th grade in Saint Anthony's. Finished 9th grade and went on to 10th grade. So at this point this player repeats 10th grade, which would now bring him back in the grade he should have been in and continues on that track to this year's graduation. Understood he played all 5 years in but there are plenty of long island players who play varsity in 8th grade and will end up playing 5 years of high school ball. He seems to be of age for a varsity player...not a hold back....plus he skipped 8th grade. Lets move on!!!

Don't see REDICULOUS guy stating he's NOT from Syosset or Port, therefore I believe the original assumption to be factual.

That makes sense! Forfeit the season so you don't lose the championship! Catch my drift

NOT FROM SYOSSET.

Clear enough A-Hole???

yes, forfeit the crappy season get it off the books and don't have an "official" championship loss. Catch my drift.... typical

yes, they are very classy those St. Anthony's boys. And smart too.... bragging about it on social media! Genius!

Playing a sport at St Anthony's is tougher than making a lot of college teams. And when your program is that strong and expected to win, rules are bent just like they are in college. Lots of money and bragging rights at stake. St Anthony's has a lot of kids on scholarship that don't belong and why do you think that is....?

Just win baby!

nice try....sure that post was from st ants. person.

Methinks thou doth protest too much! Thanks Brave, so predictable. Why the question marks though? Are you asking a question?

While no one knows all the ins and outs of the sitution
Seems like this was a bad idea from jump street
Having child skip 8th grade
It would seem to make that type of move he would have to be very gifted in the classroom ?
But to then repeat a grade a few years later
Hopefully just a oversight as pointed out above
But sure seems like more to the story

"Harder than College teams""?? Really? You've got to stop smoking that crack! St A and Cham no different than any other good LI HS program. None of them compare to a college team.

Chaminade would have gotten their rear ends handed to them in Championship game. That's why they turned kid in.

Guess you were not at the April 5th game.......

Whatever you say pal.

Continue living in your alternative universe Snowflake.

haha.

Jr. Flyers bested the Sr. Flyers today in a scrimmage.

If you don't think securing a roster spot at ST A's is harder than most D3 teams then you haven't been through the process. I'm not saying its better lacrosse but it is harder to get on the roster

It's not that hard...

Just need to make a series of charitable contributions to the LI Express organization. Oh, and pay that St. Anthony's tuition.

Yes by 1 goal fun game for all 1 team 1 goal

Good for the st a parent who blew the whistle. Anyone who thinks otherwise is quite naive. When people wake up from the st a / x press coma after their wallet has been fleeced it's a true moment of clarity. Good for u sta fed up parent. Break the circle people . If u listen to fools, the mob rules.

Says the sissy who wanted to sue the school over a game, alternate universe? Thanks Syosset dad! Keep proving my point, pretty sure the dude who wants to sue a high school is viewed as a complete deuche, by everyone. [lacrosse]hole

The Chaminade juniors would be embarrassed if they found out out Dad was bragging about winning a casual pick up game...

No one, and I mean no one cares anywhere about a silly scrimmage. But I responded so I guess I'm the dope!

Yeah Dad! It was epic!! ...no refs, no clock, no coaches...no care.

Someone suggested a charity fund raiser game...
but, who else, gets the sense that Coaches, simply don't care enough, to go out of their way and make it happen?

at last night's SHA - St. Ant's game title game at Adelphi, Friars boys paraded past the SHA bleacher student section and parent section yelling, "Shut up you SHA [lacrosse]----."

Classy, very classy.

St A's is like Florida State

That did NOT happen!

Definitely not a Syosset Dad. Syosset dads are thinking about the playoff's, not posting on BOTC or planning their summer beach plans like SA Dads.

Have a nice summer fool.

Doubt it.

Oh yes it did. Kid wearing a SA #22 jersey. Looking at his size , it probably happened near snack bar

And let's not forget about the hillbilly in the Cavs jersey in bare feat.
He was a real class act!!

Do you also doubt that the St. Anthonys Varsity team urinated on the floor of the flyers locker room after the game? Wake up parents, ALL OF OUR schools everywhere, have kids making bad choices but instead of doubting it , ask your children. As parents this is the time/opportunity to discourage poor behavior before we send them off to college. I for one use all of these horrible college stories to talk to my son, about excessive drinking, drugs, being a good person, friend, making right choices. They are becoming adults and its no longer oh boys will be boys! Its putting as much into our kids being good people, not just good lacrosse players. Why do people think that they don't need to check in with 16/17 year old kids? Talk to them, discuss their friends, try to make sure they are safe and helping others be safe and yes they can still have great times.
