anyone that knows anything about Lax knows that Md is equal if not better tha LI in Lax. Lets not kid anyone here. From HS to youth, they are a step above. We may win one or two games/tourneys but they are the elite. LI is still top 2 with talent and programs though. I could be wrong but in my opinion id rank lacrosse ( from youth to HS ) as follows: 1- Md 2- LI 3- Upstate NY 4- Pa. 5- Canada 6- Mass 7- Ct 8- Fl 9- NC 10-NJ
