Texas A&M is home to many athletic traditions - Kyle Field, Midnight Yell, the 12th Man and many others. But there is another little-known tradition on campus, a growing tradition, a winning tradition. It's the oldest team in the state in its sport - it's the Texas A&M men's lacrosse team.

"We were one of the founding teams here in Texas, the very first college team," said Tony Scazzero, head coach for the lacrosse team. "It caught on very fast and we formed the Southwest Lacrosse Association back in the mid-1970s."

It is actually a very good article. I was surprised when it said Tony had been there since 1978. That's 30 years! I would have sworn it seems more like 40-50 years!!! Love ya Tony. :lol:
