THE 2020 HIGH SCHOOL BOYS LACROSSE PRESEASON MEDIA ALL BACK OF THE CAGE TEAM
Back Of The CAGE is excited to announce the 2020 High School Boys' Lacrosse
Preseason Media All Back Of The Cage Team which was extremely difficult in making as there are so many worthy players who deserve to be on this list but there are unfortunately only so many spots that we can fill. At the end of the 2020 season, this list will most likely change - statistics, players impact, team success, voting from coaches & experts of the game along with a small percentage of a players career among other factors go into our decision making. Congrats to those on our 2nd annual All Back Of The Cage team and for any players coaches, parents or teammates would like to nominate to make our BOTC staff keep an eye on that player(s), please kindly email us at
