If you think that McDonogh's astoundingly huge endowment is not being utilized to recruit lacrosse players, then you're crazy. As far as the girls' lacrosse program goes there, approximately one in four lacrosse players that come out of the middle school will actually make the varsity team because the girls' varsity team is almost completely recruited from the outside. Don't kid yourself about any sport at McDonogh and the amount of scholarship dollars that are spent to get kids enrolled and on the field.
It is one of the few MIAA schools that can recruit from far away and board them. With a graduation class of 60-80 boys it is hard to compete against the other MIAA schools with much larger boys graduating.
