Olympic Heights Lacrosse – Why Is This The Only Major Boca Raton High School Without The Sport? Part One
Written by Lee Roggenburg on . Posted in Across The LAX World, Featured Posts, Florida Lacrosse News, High School, Southeast Boys.
As I look around the rapid growth of our favorite sport I’m struck by the fact that in Boca Raton, my hometown, there is ONE glaring hole . . . why is Olympic Heights not fielding a team?
Two years ago they announced a Boys’ team led by Chris Andrea:
Remember this?

Pretty sweet helmet design, right?
Equipment was donated and money raised.
What happened to that equipment and money? Seems like an accounting needs to occur and quickly.
So, I ask the question of ALL Olympic Heights students and parents . . .
Are students interested in playing the sport or not? The FASTEST growing sport in America is offered all over Boca Raton . . . but not here.
Please contact us at Lee@FloridaLacrosseNews.com to let us know if you are interested in playing!
Former Head Coach/Temporary Head Coach whatever we call it:
Chris had a pretty darn good resume, having played Division 1 lacrosse at Fairfield and Robert Morris! A darn good fit to build a program on. A shame he never got a real shot.
But MOST IMPORTANTLY, if you are a Boy or Girl who has interest in playing lacrosse at the school, please contact me!
