Lacrosse final four weekend

Just in time for the NCAA Final Four, an article from an unlikely outlet, explaining how even though our nation is in a recession... lacrosse is in a boom. The wall Street Journal discusses the westward migration and the boom is not stopping anytime soon. My own roommate Kyle Harrison even gets a quote in the article, so everyone tune in this weekend and lets set some more big numbers as  we watch this sport take off.

The games this weekend are on ESPN2 and something for everyone to watch. Attackmen, learn from the UVA boys on how to work together as those three (Glading, Stanwick, and Billings) put up crazy numbers on just about everyone in the league. Or If you want to see a Midfielder check out Cornell and watch Max Seibold and John Glynn both do everything they can, defense, face-off, and bring the noise on offense. If Defense is your cup of tea check out Duke, they play so well as a total unit, and goalie Rob Schroeder's leadership between the pipes is always impressive. Or maybe you want to  take in the team side where Syracuse is always known to take the "'eash off" in the final four and just move from one end to the other as fast as anyone.

Point is that whatever you are looking for as a lacrosse fan, or player, even just a sports fan in general this weekends final four has something for you... andnow it's a national attraction!
