Giblin will have his way with Prep while he is at SJC. Wouldn't be surprised if a few kids transfer over to Military road in the coming years.
And whoever thinks Gonzaga is on the same page as Prep is dreaming. You need to beat them a few times in a row and be the best team in DC for a constructive years. I think it's been 3 years since Gonzaga beat Prep. [/qu
If you want to go down swinging, fine...Landon was a co-champ in 2014? Mmmkkay, well GP lost a game to STA at STA on a field STA allowed the grass to grow to mid shins level. Then they slammed down STA the next time. That was the only game GP lost in 2014. They smoked Landon twice. A better question is what self respecting Landon kid or parent would walk around wearing a co-IAC champs t-shirt.
All of this is hard to face, but over the recent 3, 5 or 7 years Landon was passed by GP (and that is now over since GP's Giblin dynasty obsession is over, and after this year when their parent coach's kid graduates it is really over) and has been passed by Gonzaga.
Let me give you one statistic as to why lacrosse crazies have flocked and will keep flocking to Gonzaga and will start flocking to play for a sidelines tyrant who is also a lacrosse genius at STJ: about $20K a year is a lot less and a lot more affordable than about $40K a year. As a lacrosse academy, Landon had its day when it was the only game in town kind of like Madlax was for club before others arrived. With less expensive choices and the same quality lacrosse elsewhere, that era is over. And anyone who rates Gonzaga's lacrosse quality below Landon's isn't someone with an informed opinion.

He's a strong personality and a royal pain in the rear for school administrators when he wants his way, but that does not translate into harming a kid. I also couldn't care less about the boys at the bar stories. He's not popular with everyone, but he can sure coach lacrosse. STJ will be beating Prep and Landon in no time once he gets kids he wants in that program. An FYI for those of you without long history, Prep for years in the 1990s would get crushed by Landon. People said it would never happen, but Landon spent the next decade plus looking up at Prep. Gonzaga was the one getting crushed 6-7 years ago, and look at them now. Things change.

You'd have a point there is Prep hadn't won the conference in 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013 & 2014.
