"What to Watch: Northport (N.Y.) at Ward Melville (N.Y.) - The Tigers have received a solid amount of hype in the preseason - knocking off the defending champs will be a step in the right direction to prove that Suffolk County isn’t just Smithtown West and then everybody else. The possession battle will be huge, look for Northport’s Austin Henningsen (Maryland) to win the majority of the draws."
Not sure how this will prove "Suffolk isn't Smithtown West and everybody else." I think Ward Melville or Northport or someone else beating Smithtown West would prove it.
Even Inside Lacrosse doesn't think the league is deep. I think Ward Melville will beat Smithtown West but who will beat Ward Melville? After watching WM Vs Chaminade on MSG I will say they are very good. Three ligit players and a bunch of good players. SW also lookd good Vs Garden City but I thiknk Melville will win. Don't know about NP but we will all find out on Thursday.
