I guess this forum is all about grammar now, sorry from now on I will make sure to use correct punctuation and grammar at all times. I am sorry for anyone who didn't understand what I was saying.

If we (our team) were to watch a highschool game, is it allowed to hand players of highschool teams brochures? We're not breaking any rules if we do that do we? We would just like to let the cities know we have a lacrosse program and a great school.

You will be fine passing out brochures on your program, and i am saying this on remebering an earlier post about how USLIA had a recruiting advantage over NCAA because you could throw the recruit a t-shirt. So go ahead give them a t-shirt, H2, and maybe a corvette. Better Idea; fly them out to Eau Claire in the team Lear and meet him and his entourage of agents, bodyguads, groupies at the airport with jersey with his name on the back and a bottle of Cristal.

Some HS scores i have found suprising/intresting.
EP 10
Hopkins 8

Armstrong- 6
Minneapolis- 3

I'd really like to see AV go all the way this year. I was a part of RAVE when they first started up, and went to the championship but could never finish it. Joe Gaston and Matia (not sure if he's still there, or went to Eagan) know there stuff. Gaston is wonderfull at defense, and an intense guy. Eastview should be decent. They have an awesome coach.

How does this new guy that is going D1 compare with Colin Achenbach when he played for RAVE?

We do have an airport, but we would more likely hand him a lieni's. Thanks for the help.

And back on topic....

Went to the AV-EP game last night. Stayed for the first half, until my 2 year old decided it was time for bed.

AV was up 8-4. I'm told AV won by 2, after a furious comback by EP.

Impressions.

Both teams have a great attack units.

Gnazzo is very good.

Both teams well coached.

AV moves the ball in transition exceptionally well.

AV didn't take many bad shots (i.e. shots with low angle, or shots that hit goalie), which is impt against a goalie like Gnazzo.

When EP allows #18 to "qb" their offense, they are very tough on offense. When they don't, they are less effective

If the two teams end up playing each other in the playoffs, I'd advise attending...

Awesome news. I am pulling for AV this year. How old did thier coach look?

by **canders23** on Fri Apr 22, 2005 1:35 pm

I was able to ref a couple of EP games last week. Gnazzo looks very good. Better on that turf they have but almost human on grass against Hopkins.

by **Dimage** on Fri Apr 22, 2005 3:06 pm

EP's D must be struggling cause gnazzo has already given up 34 goals in 4 games...

by **Rob Graff** on Fri Apr 22, 2005 3:10 pm

They've had some problems getting the starting defense on the field together. They view their second half v. AV (5 goals, while their offense scored 7) as more indicitive of the future. But only their performance will determine if this correct.

not really. we played them last sunday and we only lost by 4, which shouldnt have happened but we stopped communicating on defense. im not saying their a bad team but i think we should have won
