South Florida Chapter of US Lacrosse Honors Season’s Best

Written by Lee Roggenburg on June 12, 2017. Posted in Uncategorized.

Saturday night FAU’s stadium served not only as the site of a thrilling Florida Launch come from behind 15-14 win over the The New York Lizards, but also as the host for this year’s South Florida Chapter of US Lacrosse awards banquet. As far as I am concerned, every chapter in the state should try to replicate this great way to...

District 26 – Fast And Furious Follows A Close Call

Written by Lee Roggenburg on April 5, 2017. Posted in Uncategorized.

Thank you to Euri Mead and FLN’s own Seth Green for the pictures provided for this article! District playoffs. A subtle combination of reality and fantasy masked as What-if . . . Two alliterations in one headline . . . not bad. Two wildly divergent games . . . also not bad. One scare and one thrill ride. Last year I was in...

#10 Stoneman Douglas Continues Surge with a 15-7 Win at Boca Raton

Written by Lee Roggenburg on March 11, 2017. Posted in Uncategorized.

Thanks to Jeff Horwitz for the pictures! As I went along the summer circuit down here more than one coach told me ‘look out for Douglas, they are beating everyone here’. And last night it was easy to see why. I have not yet seen Jupiter play and I am going to Gulliver today to see Ponte Vedra, but last night’s...

FLN Weekly High School Media Poll (Well, This Writer Anyhow!) – 3/5/17

Written by Lee Roggenburg on March 5, 2017. Posted in Uncategorized.

Well, if you thought last week’s results shook things up, this week was kind of an earthquake . . . Two teams just outside of the Top 20 last week made major statements. A perennial Top 10 program looks like it is spiraling out. David Bowie had a song about this . . . The Southwest of Florida is starting to...

FLN Weekly High School Media Poll (Well, This Writer Anyhow!) – 2/26/17

Written by Lee Roggenburg on February 26, 2017. Posted in Uncategorized.

Three weeks into the season and this past week really shook things up . . . LOTS of big games that impacted the rankings. The type of week that makes it a little harder to come up with that really good song that i can use to introduce the week. But then, using a particularly inspired piece of memory . . . A film that I saw in...

Boca Raton 14-8 Over Columbus Catholic in Battle of Programs Looking to Climb Back

Written by Lee Roggenburg on February 20, 2017. Posted in Uncategorized.

photos via Jeff Eisenmann It’s pretty easy for a game like this to sort of be taken for granted. The last few years both programs have struggled to continue Final Eight FHSAA appearances. These two schools weigh heavily on me as far as the first two seasons of writing for FLN as each wrote a story that made waves, CC in 2013 and Boca...
