THE 2020 HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS LACROSSE PRESEASON MEDIA ALL BACK OF THE CAGE TEAM

Back Of The Cage (BOTC) is proud to announce the 2nd Annual High School Girls' Lacrosse Preseason Media All Back Of The Cage Team which recognizes the top lacrosse players on Long Island put together by the BOTC staff based upon statistics, accomplishments, coaches recommendations, and scouting reports. Although the 2020 season is still to be determined due to the COVID-19 outbreak in the U.S. which led to the suspension of the games, we wanted to honor these players, regardless of whether or not games will be played this spring.
