A good football team doesn't necessarily mean if those kids decided to play lacrosse they would be automatically good. Look at a powerhouse football program like New Rochelle. It's not easy to just give a kid in high school a stick, no matter how good of an athlete he is, and expect him to be able to adapt to the speed and decision making being made at the top of Sec 1. Maybe in the 80's and 90's this was more plausible, but the sport has grown tremendously.
