A Look Back at 2014 – My Commentary From Bradenton, Including the Benjamin-STA Semifinal

  This is the second in a short series of game recaps we wrote in 2014 for the Final Four in Bradenton.  Since we have the same semifinal matchups we thought it would be fun to re-run the coverage from then!  Lake Highland Prep looking to repeat their 2013 championship run against Ponte Vedra!  Ponte Vedra came into the game 21-2 with the...

thanks to Lisa Erdmann for the pictures and the report provided to us by attendee Lars Bennett   When your fate in life is to defeat your cross town rival, and arguably one of best lacrosse teams in the State every year just to get into the post-season, you can’t take anything for granted.  After a long regular season marred by a spate of...

The E-Lee-te Eight – Predicting Today

  This one is fraught with peril. I’ve only seen four of the Final 8 teams this year. No Maclay, no Ponte Vedra, no Plant and no Barron Collier And I haven’t seen Lake Highland for quite some time.   But that’s why they pay me the big bucks . . . Actually the denomination is more like Lira. Not too many of...

Gulliver Edges Belen In Thriller

Miami lacrosse.  Ho hum? An afterthought?  I guess you could have said that at one point about Orlando, Jacksonville, Tampa, and expanding a tad, Florida and every location which is not Canada (lacrosse is the national sport of Canada), Long Island, Upstate New York and Baltimore.  A few were skipped, but you get the point.  Miami’s...

Previewing the Second Round in the Bottom Half

  Before I get into the preview of the four games, a side note. We’ll give a separate review of the Bracket Challenge but I want to note that NO ONE picked Oxbridge and a lot of the brackets had SA going all the way . . . Michigan State on steroids . . . and if you go strictly with my first thought I did not pick Oxbridge either. ...

Benjamin Pulls Away Early to 15-5 Win Over Jensen Beach in First Round

  This game is pretty easy to recap. Benjamin pretty much won every facet of the game last night at Jensen and was able to ease their way into the second round on Wednesday, when they will travel to Melbourne Central Catholic. For whatever reason Jensen Beach came out flat and and stayed that way the entire first half and by then it was...
