New York lacrosse runs from the sport's Haudenosaunee origins to the country's deepest high school talent pools. Long Island is a universe of its own — Nassau and Suffolk high school lacrosse is arguably the best in the nation — while Upstate carries its own tradition through Syracuse, the Mohawk Valley, and Section III's storied programs. New York City's scene is growing fast through youth development programs and adult leagues on both sides of the East River. Box lacrosse has real roots here too, especially Upstate near the Six Nations corridor. Whatever your format or level, New York has a game for it most months of the year.
