It's the kids, they are not a team, they are individuals wearing the same uniform.


And who is to blame? It starts with the coach. The seasons outcome relies on what this coach gets from the JV. Wantagh has a do nothing coach that divides the kids into those that can do no right and those that can do no wrong. I guess 16 years without a big win is always the kids fault year after year. If the kids are not a team who do you blame? The kids? It's the coaches job to get the kids to buy in. Not happening here. Just a teacher with a side job. Nothing more. He should step aside and give the kids a chance.


No senior leadership, no off season workouts, no communication between upperclassmen and the boys coming up. It's the players, they have no cohesion, that's not on the coach


A lot of very big ego's on this team & that is the parents fault not the coaches.


IMHO, this is a coaching issue. If you have that many kids, and family with egos it is up to the coach to keep them in check. It is also on the coach to make sure the upperclassmen, especially the captains, get the incoming varsity kids up to speed, and lay out a regiment for the captains to implement during the off season. If none of this is implemented by the captains it is on the coach to demote the kid, no matter how talented, and if still no change then outright bench them, what the [lacrosse] you're losing anyway, you might as well have some moral compass along the way. This also goes for the families of players, if parents or siblings are out of control then send a message to them by benching the player and let it be known why. Coaches need to grow a backbone and regain control of there programs. This coach needs to go, NO I DO NOT HAVE A KID ON THE TEAM, I don't even have a son. This is about coaching not gender or bias


This is the reason that Wantagh can't win. From the posts above there are some real issues with the 2017 & 2018 grades. Specifically with the Captains of the team. This more of a parent issue then a coach issue. Good luck.
