[quote=Anonymous]The first PP is correct though on his facts, even if you don't like the way he writes. Public schools in the Washington area do not have as well developed or as talented lacrosse teams as the privates.  Some only recently gained lacrosse programs. That is not true further north.  New York and New Jersey have lots of power house public lacrosse schools.  The Washington area does not, yet.

The other states you named, Florida, Texas, Colorado, are coming along but have no where as near developed lacrosse programs either, whether pubic or private.  We were out in Vail last year for the big tournament and saw teams from all over.  The best teams, with the best stick skills, are still coming from the mid Atlantic and Northeast and, more typically, from prep schools.

Many of the teams from Texas, Florida, Colorado and other States where the sport is still new, play a much rougher, more physical, football-style of lax.  Or at least that was the constantly heard refrain in Vail from numerous coaches, players, refs and parents from all over the country.  In addition, those same comments contained references to the more sophisticated play and higher level of  stick skills of the teams from NE and Mid Atlantic.
