Western Prime Championships: LIVE on LaxAllStars

The best boys and girls club lacrosse teams from the Western region are in Frisco, Texas, this weekend to compete at the 2018 Western Prime. Teams compete on the turf at Ford Center in The Star, training facility of the Dallas Cowboys and home field of the Dallas Rattlers.

Western Prime first started two years ago when Adrenaline moved the All-American Games from California to The Star in Texas. Adrenaline staffers jumped on the opportunity to host the best teams in the best venue.

A venue like The Star called for it. We signed a long lease with the facility because we believe in what we are doing and what these programs are doing to elevate their kids. For us, it was a no-brainer to launch the Western Prime.

Adrenaline is highly selective about which teams it lets into the Western Prime. Each club lacrosse team in attendance, whether from St. Louis, San Francisco or somewhere in between, has earned the right to be there this weekend. Every coach and player has got to be pumped for the experience to play in The Star.

Each team at Western Prime gets the chance to experience pre-game chalk talks with various NCAA coaches on Friday. On Saturday they experience film review sessions and participate in clinics led for the NCAA coaching staff, too.

Current NCAA players Bubba Fairman (Maryland), Justin Anderson (UNC), Cade Van Raaphorst (Duke) and Tucker Dordevic (Syracuse) are all making the trip to Dallas, too – They’re all West Coast Starz alumni working for Adrenaline, and they’re chomping at the bit to “guest coach” for the Western Prime clubs in attendance.

It’s hot in Texas, so playing outdoors isn’t ideal. Luckily there’s The Star, which looks like the nicest “lacrosse stadium” I’ve ever seen! These lacrosse teams are insanely lucky to have the chance to play in such an world-class facility.

With the Western Prime, we want to provide the best experience possible to the best players from the best programs. One of the most important components is empowering these players from the West to showcase their skills in front of NCAA coaches. To see it all come together the past couple of years is a dream come true.

I’m thankful that programs trust us to give their players this awesome experience – it’s a really fulfilling feeling to be involved with this as it’s a huge passion play for our company. When you put passion into something it ends of being really special.

– Alex Cade, Adrenaline CEO
