[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a question.  How many boys go to Landon?  How many play Lacrosse?[/quote]

Most are juniors and seniors with a few underclassmen.    I guess 20-25% are on the varsity lacrosse roster.   There is JV for most freshmen and sophomores.   Younger years have grade specific teams and lower enrollment so there would be attrition on the rosters.

This estimate is way too high.  There are plenty of other spring sports - tennis, baseball, track/cross country that all field full and competitive teams.  And boys who don't play any, although only a few.  I'd guess it's more like 10% who are on either varsity or JV.

I got the % from the online roster divided by the enrolled students for junior/senior year.  It is 20-25% because the enrollment number comes from nces [national center for education statistics] so might be for a different school year.

Lacrosse has 10 on the field at any given time:
1 goalie
3 middies
3 attack
3 defense

teams have 3 middie lines so that's a minimum of 23 plus all the others who don't get real gametime.  10% of 170 juniors and senior total only gives 17 kids on a roster.   That's representative of a small understaffed youth league team NOT a high school varsity squad that's competitive.  [/quote]
