By Lacrosse Playground | March 8, 2013 |
This past week definitely had its ups and downs. Coming off of our player’s only meeting on Tuesday afternoon, the team had a couple of great practices on Thursday and Friday. Our squad had a new sense of confidence as we were able to discuss our problems and figure out what we needed to do to be successful.

For those of you that haven’t seen the news, twitter, facebook, instagram or basically live under a rock, the east coast was slammed with Nemo, the blizzard.

By Lacrosse Playground | April 13, 2012 |
It’s been a while since I had to write about a loss in this blog. I guess I should consider that a positive thing, but I’d be lying to myself if I thought it was that easy to find personal closure in the face of defeat. Going forward, the only attainable closure in this type of situation can be found through hard work: by working harder in practice than you did in the previous week. Read More...
