[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A sport for white boys ~ long tradition of being able to avoid competition from more gifted African American athletes. [/quote] This. Rich people see it as their kid's ticket because there is no competition from anyone but privileged white kids who, let's face it, aren't good athletes in general. In every other sport there is competition from kids from all over the country and various socio-economic backgrounds, not so for lacrosse. It lets rich white kids excel at a sport when they otherwise wouldn't. Hopefully it will spread to poorer schools and areas so those folks can take advantage of the scholarship money and easier admission standards.[/quote]
