[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]any word on GP head lacrosse position?

It's almost July and still nothing. [/quote]

What's the rush?

Season is many months in the future.

They are probably still mulling over what direction they want to go in. Do they want to return to the not-so-distant past of excellence? Or are they willing to let lacrosse be just another sports program at GP (with football possibly regaining it's former position as the #1 program)?

This isn't an easy decision and its Summer and they have other things on their plate like the recent death of the Headmaster.

Another example of how out-sized athletic programs represent both a benefit to the school and at the same time a significant PIA. Once you get on that treadmill and the thing starts running faster and faster, it's hard to get off gracefully. And this has been made more difficult by the rise of other IAC schools (Bullis and SSSA) So it's not like de-emphasis of the sport will mean falling own to #2 behind Landon. Instead, it's a fall to the bottom sharing last place with STA.

And there isn't going to be any mutually-agreed disarmament now that Bullis and SSSA have tasted some success.

I suspect GP, in the selection of a new Lacrosse coach, will try and split the difference by selecting someone with just enough credibility to keep the parents, etc at bay while at the same time being someone the AD can manage and who isn't obviously using this as a stepping-stone job.[/quote]
