Southern Lacrosse Gets Boost from Northern Schools | Alpharetta Lacrosse Ranked #2

Between the tornados that battered Atlanta this weekend, the Notre Dame men’s lacrosse team battered the Big Green of Dartmouth. It was fantastic to see a Division 1 lacrosse game played in Atlanta (promoted by BreakAway Lacrosse and played at Lovett High School) and the support the northern schools are giving to the growth of lacrosse in the South by scheduling the game in Atlanta.

Kids from all over the metro area game dressed in their game jerseys giving you an idea of just how wide spread the game has become in Atlanta and how much it has grown in just the past 3-5 years. Lacrosse is now a viable extracurricular activity for your children if you live in Atlanta or are planning to relocate to Atlanta. That’s sweet news for families moving to Atlanta from El Norte, where lacrosse is more mainstream.

One of the season’s best boy’s high school teams to date is Alpharetta High School. They are ranked #2 behind Lovett and are so far unbeaten at 8-0. They dominated #7 Lassiter this past week 14-2 and will play #8 Roswell High School on March 25 and #1 Lovett on April 23rd at Lovett on the same field that Notre Dame took Dartmouth to task 19-7.

I captured a few images from the Notre Dame - Dartmouth game. This is my favorite. To see the rest, go here: http://picasaweb.google.com/kevinwarmath/NotreDameVDartmouth
