So many of you are going to be so disappointed when you find out the athletic money is so little. You are better off at the water cooler talking about how smart your child is...that is where most of the money will come from.


I am sure you are on target for many, but for some, lacrosse can be the differentiator for what level of school our child can attend. Just grades will not get you into the best schools, but grades and a lacrosse game can be the difference between a top 20 school or not. It is also about all the great things that competitive athletics teach your kids for life. Some folks are fortunate to not be worried about the money, but rather the develop of their child as a person and the opportunities they get early in life.
