Great part about it is that many of those schools feed into LSU. The growth of HS LAX in Louisiana means that LSU will no longer only rely on transplants from Texas, Northeast and Midwest....Those guys will still add strength to the program (now and in the future), but LSU will make another step forward with the addition of homegrown, HS trained talent.

Many thanks to Rusty, Paul, Ford, Karl, Phil, Rob, Steve and many others who have made HS Lacrosse grow in the Pelican State! And a big thanks goes to US Lacrosse!!!! I am forever indebted and will pay my dues every year (on time or close to it) for the help they have given my State!
