She doesn't have to pass to anyone and won't be corrected. 2) Follow Mr. Smith around like a duckling and quack in his ear. 3)Live in one of the Islips. Glad I saved my $35, see you in Maryland.

My first experience with travel lacrosse. My daughter and her friends traveled a pretty long distance to try out for TG. They gave their best, and made black. None of this BS you speak of. You want your daughter to make black, tell her to work hard and she's got a chance.


My daughter was on purple last year.We had an awesome time bonding with the parents and the girls all got along. I was able to watch quite a few black games and while they had talent I couldn't help but feel there was no "chemistry" amongst the girls. I am happy to say my daughter made purple again and I look forward to meeting new friends. I am hearing that many girls from both teams were cut, and while it saddens me I believe the intent is to make 2 strong "A" teams. Good luck to all of the girls where ever they land.
