How about this - how many 8th graders do you know for a fact are 16? Not I heard or that kid looks big - I mean know for a fact. I'm not saying it hasn't happened. Just that people are making it sound like it's rampant and it's not. People also make it sound like reclassing and early recruiting is specific to lacrosse. Guess what - lacrosse is late to that game. If you don't like the league change or petition the league.
