Regarding the assertion that Catholics don’t challenge themselves by playing small publics, you comment is moronic. First, get your facts straight. St Anthony's played both Episcopal and Haverford (both Philly) last year. They lost to Episcopal by one goal and then lost 11-5 to Haverford, the #1 team in the country at the time. Second, this isn't college. Traveling 3-5 hours to play teams in MA or Philly is difficult, given committed, local non-league and mandated league schedules. Don’t tell me the publics do it, because they do not. The almighty Syosset Braves left Long Island once to play a Buffalo school. Wow. Should we also be impressed Syosset plays the likes Baldwin, Freeport, Plainview, East Meadow and MacArthur? Talk about a real murderer’s row of lacrosse teams there. Smithtown East never left Long Island once. Does that mean they are scared or ducking out-of-state schools?

If you have complex about Chaminade or St. Anthony’s, that’s fine. Just don’t post idiotic comments that they don’t play challenging schedules. They do not duck anybody. These guys play the hardest schedules out of anybody in the tri-state area. Not even up for debate my friend.
