So what do these Lacrosse programs, Arcadia U., Baylor U., Drexel U, Neshaminy, North Carolina State and Pittsburgh Lacrosse have in common? #COLLEGELAX #MCLA

Wed.Feb.2.2011 

Really they don't have anything in common! OK, so I lied! I said just GAMECOCKS and SELC Lacrosse. For kicks and giggles I'll try to keep you up to date on programs of interest to me and folks around me.

Arcadia University - I just found out that Arcadia will start a NCAA D3 program starting 2012-13 academic year. I didn't really know that they had a club program, but they do, playing in the NCLL. Makes a lot of sense, there is a lot of good Lacrosse going on in the Philly area, they should have a good base to draw from. But I will never get over the school name change from BEAVER COLLEGE to ARCADIA! Glad my degree says BEAVER COLLEGE!  They missed out on a goldmine of marketing and gear! Here is the D3 announcement in PHILLYLACROSSE.com http://phillylacrosse.com/2010/12/17/arcadia-university-adds-mens-lacrosse-as-varsity-sport-team-set-to-begin-in-2012-13/

Baylor Bears - Within reach of a speeding donut in the office, we have a Baylor graduate. Even though he doesn't know "boo" about LAX, I have adopted them. Last weekend BAYLOR beat RICE 10-9 in LSA league action. Don't look now but they are rated #4 in the LAXPOWER.com MCLA ratings. Hey, #4 is #4, even if is February 2nd. http://www.laxpower.com/update11/binmen/rating05.php

Drexel University - Another guy  in the office that I can hit with a donut! He talks about how DREXEL won the CLUB PAINTBALL NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP last year! Who would have know! I do know they have a very good LAX program. A few years ago we went to the VIRGINIA/DREXEL game and we sat next to Paul Rabil's mom!

Neshaminy High School - Where my daughter and son graduated from high school. It is a "huge" Football school, and big in general, 800 students in the senior class alone.Daughter ran cross-country, indoor and spring track for 4 years. My Son was captain on the NESHAMINY REDSKINS  Lacrosse squad that made in into the first PA state Lacrosse playoffs his senior year. They have an excellent coach, McDaniel University 2 time NCAA D3 All-American Defenseman Josh Hanlon. We will even check out what some of the Neshaminy LAX alumni are up to in college.

North Carolina StateAnother guy  in the office that I can hit with a donut, but it is a difficult throw!

University of Pittsburgh - My nephew is a PITT graduate and last year I had to rub it in when the GAMECOCKS beat PITT in Blacksburg Va. His cousin had 2 goals for the GAMECOCKS to make it even more painful for him! 

I would love to hear about your SELC team, game reports or just to discuss SELC/MCLA Lacrosse. So shoot me an email at COCKSLAX.REPORT@gmail.com , on TWITTER @COCKSLAX_REPORT, or leave comments on my POSTEROUS site http://cockslaxreport.posterous.com/

Please forgive the lousy formatting... doing this on the fly and it will get better over time!
