Can we please stop blaming kids for choosing prom over lacrosse? Mamaroneck & Carmel did attempt to work this out and ran into an administrative road block. It’s been hard enough on these kids the last 16 months. Conflicts were inevitable. Ease up.

For whatever reason, we're getting away from the community aspect that once separated lacrosse. There is a code. Don't harm the game. Don't harm each other. Play within the rules. You knock him down. You extand a hand after the whistle and pick him up.

Before we scatter for the summer, a sincere thank you to all of the loyal readers. The metrics say it was a successful season, but more importantly, it was a pleasure to watch the kids grow up Seniors, play hard, have fun, call home. The rest of you, find a wall. Mike D.

Here is my thought of the day ... The end is never easy, but take a moment and thank administrators, coaches, officials & teammates before you hand the uniform in. So many invested untold hours to make this season happen. A quiet 'thank you' resonates for a long, long time.

Folks, let’s stop discrediting the kids who get recognition for their ability and achievements. Knocking legit All-Americans isn’t OK. There are some deserving players not on the list. It happens, but you’re doing them a disservice by dragging others down.
