It's "USA"...covers the nation, the best players in the nation in each area voted on by the regional coaching staff. Doesn't matter about how'd they compete vs other regions. It's the most legit selection. You'd rather have a payola, politics, parent, crony system like Nike/UA/Warrior or other tournament run by a travel club?

Actually, The USA Lacrosse All-American selection process for Nassau and Suffolk have traditionally been the most political of all of the awards. Unless they have changed the process in the past year or so the selections have in the past been very political. Players who have been named All-American in the past for the most part have always been excellent players but the process has been very political and there have been many players left out simply because they did not have an advocate (coach) on the selection "committee".

Can you actually show some facts to back up your comment, or is this your opinion?
