The top 100, the pre season players to watch and the year end awards always go to the stat leaders. Some are the best of the best and some are stat builders that beat up on over matched competition. Sadly there are very rarely any defenders that get accolades. In a sport where selfish play is now the norm, nobody ever praises good defense.
Except for the very best of teams, all lacrosse teams have black holes where once certain players get the ball you might as well stop running because it's never ever coming back (whoever had the slurpee line, insert it here).
