you people do realize that it is much harder to record an assist in girls lacrosse than score a goal. lacrosse is not hockey. probably less than 10% of all goals in girls lacrosse are scored off true assists. all those assist stats in newsday are greatly exaggerated anyway. This does not excuse a player from running up their goal total in blowouts, however on some teams a few girls need to score to even keep the game close. This is reality and please don't compare teams like Manhasset to lesser opponents when talking about who scores or how many score. Fact is that the top teams have probably 5-10 players that would be the star on 80% of the HS teams out there and would score all of that teams goals. reality
