Adding Men’s Lacrosse? Not So Fast
After reading a recent Lax All Stars blog titled “Who Will Add D1 Lacrosse Next?” and the follow up post “Responding To Criticism From The Growth Blog”, Tony Lowe of Elev8 Sports Institute got to thinking of the reasons why big time sport schools, like Florida State and University of Florida, have not ventured into Men’s Lacrosse, while schools like Boston University, Richmond, Furman, Marquette, and Jacksonville have.
Responding To Criticism From The Growth Blog

Go Go Go Coaching: Lacrosse Vs Football
Kliff Kingsbury is now the youngest coach in the BCS, at only 33 years of age. He was the offensive coordinator at Texas A&M last year, and helped propel Johnny Manziel to a Heisman worthy season, so trusting his knowledge and approach should be a little easier, even if you’re an age-ist.

Recruiting Is Dangerous: Kevin Warne Gets Run Over
College coaches hit the recruiting trail hard over the Summer, especially in June and July.

When the action gets close, they get a great view, but also run the risk of getting trucked.

NCAA D1 Lacrosse Conference Re-Alignment

Low Final Four Lacrosse Attendance: ONE REASON
A big topic of discussion this Spring has been the relatively low attendance at the NCAA Quarterfinals, and Final Four weekend. The usual outlets are offering the usual banal reasons, but doing little to actually think about what is going wrong here.
Ridiculous Connor English Shovel Shot Goal
Sure, Cornell lost the game, but this shot is simply too remarkable not to watch over and over again. It’s called getting creative kids, and we love seeing stuff like this go down at the highest levels of the game!
Syracuse Vs Duke: Live Photos and Blog
Chris Rosenthall has been in Philly all weekend, taking in the games, and providing his thoughts on the weekend. Tommy Gilligan is in Philly shooting the D1 title game, and he got some amazing shots from Le Moyne’s D2, and Stevenson’s D3, title games yesterday.
