Nor too many LI kids committing to either...

Traditional Top 20 Programs and total commits and commits from LI... (Yes, I know there are some other strong programs i.e. Denver, Umass) I also realize that the numbers below are not exact (but they are close)

School ------ commits --- LI commits

Boston College: 8 -- 1
Duke: 8 -- 2
Florida: 10 -- 1
James Madison: 8 -- 1
Johns Hopkins: 8 -- 2
Maryland: 10 -- 1
North Carolina: 8 -- 3
Northwestern: 7 -- 0
Notre Dame: 10 -- 0
Penn: 9 -- 1
Penn State: 8 -- 0
Princeton: 7 -- 1
Stanford: 7 -- 0
Syracuse: 10 -- 0
Virginia: 7 -- 2
USC: 9 -- 2

Also...

Michigan: 12 -- 0
Loyola: 4 -- 2


Ivy's

Brown: 4 -- 1
Columbia: 6 - 2
Cornell: 5 -- 1
Dartmouth: 6 -- 1
Harvard: 9 -- 1
Yale: 8 -- 2

It is so funny that some of you don't consider SB a top school. They are one of the best lacrosse programs out there with one of the best coaches in the game. Facts are facts folks and some of you are just plain ignorant and obviously have an axe to grind

Take it easy Joe

Agree, take it easy. Pretty sure everyone on this site considers Stony Brook a Top 10 lacrosse program. Stony Brook skews the numbers when looking at Long Island recruits. Stony Brook is a good school academically and for many LI families SBU can be more affordable than the schools listed. Stony Brook is an outlier when looking at where Long Island players choose to go to college.
