Hey Sage are you kidding? Not sure it would interfere with school. This was scheduled as an all day event. Not an evening event.
Please share your copy of the day's schedule with us. BOTC was in receipt of a draft of the day's events and we would certainly like to see what you have that refutes our statements.
It was wrong from the get go regardless of whether IMCLA has clean hands or not.
What was wrong? Attending a recruiting event on a Tuesday? Because these boys are locked away in their homes hitting the books from 2:00pm onwards after a school day?
One more time : there was a market, there were parents, student-athletes, and college coaches who felt this was a solid recruiting opportunity. They were absolutely correct in that view.
Maybe you were at a showcase when they taught " 2 wrongs don't make a right".
Or perhaps getting my Master's Degree or PhD. Better yet, perhaps BOTC understands wrong from right without having to learn it in a classroom.
Friend, the IMLCA has made its will known. They have had the desired negative impact on the Long Island lacrosse community that they desperately wanted to inflict.
So, when any parent who is cheering this turn of events now needs to attend an IMLCA hosted showcase (starting this Spring in case you all have not seen it) in Maryland, Virginia, or points further south, think about how you are going to get there for your Saturday morning events. When the IMLCA refuses to have their coaches attend any Long Island based showcase in maybe a few years down the road, think about the ground work that you are allowing to be built today.
