Whooooaaaaaa, "Jesus of Philly Lax"??? I am sincerely hoping you don't mean that! Lacrosse has been huge in Philly for decades, and even if you meant just youth lacrosse you can't even breathe [lacrosse] name in the same sentence as guys like Norm Treinish, Jeff Pettit, John Linehan, [lacrosse] Lange, Ralph Davies, Tony Resch, Chris Flynn, and maybe 25 other guys. These are the guys who played in college and brought lacrosse to our kids by starting the youth leagues which led to quality high school play and then now the club teams. Tad started a program 4 years ago that will last 1 more year. He had one great team that imploded after 1 year.
Sorry for the ranting but it appears no one on this site knows the history of lacrosse in Philadelphia. It is rich and should be required knowledge for every parent and kid in the area.
