Can’t believe how low the reputation of LI lacrosse has fallen in the past 5 years. Especially the LI public programs.... gone are the days of WI and Scotty Craig or GC carrying the weight if LI in their shoulders.

Catholics always represent but usually not much higher than #5.

This year only WM and Pequa. It’s sad really! Respect for LI lax has diminished greatly.

Public programs no longer competing. They don’t play other national teams. Almost like LI teams hide from competition and rely on past teputation so as to not get exposed.

At least Catholics play real out of conference schedules bit the public’s don’t. MD and PA teams don’t want to come to LI and public’s don’t really travel.

1. Culver (Ind.)

2. Calvert Hall (Md.)

3. Hill Academy (Ont.)

4. McDonogh (Md.)

5. Brunswick (Conn.)

6. Avon Old Farms (Conn.)

7. Darien (Conn.)

8. Landon (Md.)

9. Victor (N.Y.)

10. Bullis (Md.)

11. Salisbury (Conn.)

12. Chaminade (N.Y.)

13. Malvern Prep (Pa.)

14. Boys’ Latin (Md.)

15. Ward Melville (N.Y.)

16. St. Anthony’s (N.Y.)

17. St. Sebastian’s (Mass.)

18. Massapequa (N.Y.)

19. IMG Academy (Fla.)

20. Delbarton (N.J.)

21. Belmont Hill (Mass.)

22. Gonzaga (D.C.)

23. Deerfield (Mass.)

24. Torrey Pines (Calif.)

25. Conestoga (Pa.)

231 Syosset (NY). bahhhahhahhah!


1. who cares? This list is meaningless, and LI beats everyone in travel.
2. Prep schools have kids who can't get into college on the first try so they go for one or two years to get their grades up to get in. So like someone else said, 20 year old Seniors playing
3. Why would a Public HS team pay to play any of these other teams? The competition is here, so this is where they will play out of conference.

Yes because playing Haverford, Brunswick, Avon, Culver, Calvert Hall, Darien, Delbarton, The Hill Academy, is the exact same level of competition as playing , Copaigue, North Babylon, Brentwood, Pat Med, Bay Shore, Lindenhurst, Floyd, in Suffolk 1 come on lets not get silly. The top 5 to 7 teams in any Public Long Island division are competitive teams, after that not so much


5-7 is really pushing it. 3-5 more like it.


Again, Who really cares? Does this mean anything in the grand scheme of things? Some of those schools you mention would be the equivalent of 4 or 5 of our schools in size comparison. Take the best kids from the LI teams and put them up against any of these schools and it wouldn't be close.


Who cares? It's a lacrosse blog and this is a HS forum. At least it's a conversation that a lot of us enjoy debating. Sorry your district isn't on list. Take your who cares jealous elsewhere
