Rare Villanova Lacrosse Picture from the Sixties

Earlier today, I mentioned social media’s impact on Lacrosse programs. Here is a substantial example of doing just that! Villanova Lacrosse posted this gem yesterday. It’s apparently an ad for Coca-Cola at their stadium with actual players taking part. Here’s how they described it:

#ThrowbackThursday Yes, a Coke ad was shot in Villanova Stadium during the late 60s. Here’s to Villanova Lacrosse’s finest!

How about those socks, vintage lacrosse uniforms and the Bacharach arm pads? Bring them back! Follow the team on Instagram.

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.
