Don't kid yourself, size does matter at any age. Look at this earlier post from the 2016 thread below. If size matters to Pietramala then size matters for everybody. Also, anectdotally, looking at alot of early recruiting (2015) postings on inside lacrosse - many of the kids are described as 6ft 2/3in.

Some early recruiting lessons:

"It's awfully difficult to evaluate what a kid's going to be like seven years from now," Pietramala says. "I'm in there saying: 'How big is mom? How big is dad? How tall is grandpa?' "

Lesson - Keep your short, dumpy wife/husband as far away from Petro and other D1 coaches as possible! Instead, hire a 6ft 2in slim model for the day and parade him/her around the Jake Reed camp - your kid will be verbaled by the time you get home.

Seriously, this is what it's come to. Talk about being at the mercy of a less than a perfect system. Yikes.
