In many cases, you're probably right. But the great defenders are the ones who are passionate about defense. That's not a failed middie. It's a defender. In order to lock down a really good attacker you have to love what you do in order to develop the skill and athleticism needed to do it. Or are you going to tell me Becca Block isn't a tremendous athlete? Because I'm pretty sure she'd run you into the dirt. All while smoking your daughter on the draw.


Again there are exceptions to every generality but the initial poster essentially said defense is where the best athletes play which is just a farce. As far as Becca Block running me into the dirt I don't play womens lacrosse I guess you do, and my daughter does not take the draw or is she even on the circle that would now be illegal.
