This is not true if you name is Matt?? Matt Rambo, Matt Ward, Matt Cavanaugh, all under 6' all the best player in college lax in the years they led their teams. There is also a starting 5'7" attack for OSU. The key is shorter players learn how to play v. taller bigger players. Evidence does not suggest you need to be over 6' to be a great lax player. Work on you quickness, toughness, and most of all hit the wall!
