I left the Public anonymous (could be any top academic LI school district - Ward Melv, Northport, Smithtown East/West, Syosset, Masapequa, Garden City, Manhasset)


44 D1 players and you still lose to public schools with 3or4 D1 commits and couple of D3's. How is that even possible? I wouldn't be bragging about that... Also, keep in mind more than half those commits happened to kids when they were in 9th grade. They were seen the summer between 8th and 9th. Chaminade had nothing to do with any of them, those kids were taught by Club and youth coaches. Sorry, try again. Moving forward, the kids will be committed before they even set foot in the door.


Chaminade's numbers have been similar since the 90s. Early recruiting shouldn't even enter the conversation.


Ok, Try to follow along here: If the kids are committed before they even step on the field at Chaminade, and years before they ever play a Varsity game, Chaminade will have had nothing to do with them getting recruited. So they aren't Chaminade commits, they are club and town commits. Chaminade is just the beneficiary of them choosing to go there. In the 90's Chaminade was part of the process because no one was recruited before Jr year. The same holds true academically. Chaminade doesn't take average students and mold them into scholars. Just the opposite, they weed out the average students and only take the top students. No learning issues, behavioral issues etc. The students that get accepted are students that would have been AP kids and achieved the same had they stayed in public. Not bashing the school, just stating the facts. Now don't get all in a huff and act like liberal. You know how they hate facts.


Absolutely true! Add to the fact, that parents could care less if there kid actually plays, and you have the masses attending the Big 2. Parents are more interested in being associated with a "winner" than having their kids actually play at the school. Those Chaminade magnets on the back of SUVs are worth their weight in gold. Like the 91 and Express magnets that are next to them.



Again, lacrosse is not the deciding factor for the great majority of Chaminade parents, even those whose sons play lacrosse.


Great majority of Chaminade lacrosse parents??
