[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are 74 D1 lacrosse programs. There are over 300 D1 football and hundreds more D-1a scholarship schools for football. In lacrosse there are 12.6 scholarships over average rosters of 45. In football, 85 full scholarships. [/quote]

How many youth football leagues set there? How many lacrosse leagues?[/quote]

I have better things to do with my time than count leagues and teams. Over broadly, USLacrosse states they have about 750K members, so round that up to a million to make it a sensible guess. Many millions of kids play football. Great athletes who are great football players get full college scholarships in football regardless of whether they stand out at Gonzaga or at South Lakes HS to name just one random public school. Lacrosse players who get shielded and groomed at expensive private schools get meal plan equivalent scholarships if they are very lucky...because so few colleges offer scholarships and many of the 70+ D1 schools are unfunded and several are only partially funded. When you read that a kid is verbally committed to Bucknell or to Boston U as a 9th grader, and take into consideration both schools have fewer than 7 scholarships in the program, where do you think the rainbow is ending with more than a pot of tin?
