clear game last lose reminder year
Every game is so important, especially in a year like this with so many upsets. You can't lose focus. After last year, I think the reminder is still clear enough.
game mental played tied took
It's frustrating, because I don't think we played our game in the first quarter. We were tied 1-1 at the end of the first quarter, but it took a lot of out of us, a lot of mental stuff.

lacrosse way united-states
Until box lacrosse grows in the United States, it'll continue to be this way.
believe opportunity player
I believe that box lacrosse gives young people many more opportunities to excel in our game. If I had my choice, I would have every player under the age of twelve play box lacrosse exclusively or at least a majority of the time. The number of touches of the ball and the ability to develop better stick skills in a game of box lacrosse, far surpasses what happens to young people on a 110 x 60 yard field. Learning how to pass and catch in traffic, understanding how to shoot, and developing a sense of physicality are all positive traits developed by the box game.

You have to get possession. You can't play defense for as long as we did, especially against a really good team like Hofstra.
