I guess the spring season will start when the LAX experts on this forum allows it…

LIt was a scrimmage score was not kept on the board. Fairly even with starters in the first half.

Depends on the make up of the student body but lacrosse is dominated by white players and basketball is a dominated by black players.
Sadly, this is true. The private schools use basketball as a way to increase diversity. It’s shocking how many of the privates can be 35% non-caucasian, but most of the privates run over 70% aa for basketball. If your kid is a good basketball player and is Caucasian, do not send them to a private school. There is a built in bias bc of the coaching staffs and the scholarship players must play.
Same with Football. Not gonna find too many white players on the field at DeMatha - GC - St. John’s - Carroll - McNamara and so on.

You could and maybe there are a few in the region, but the schools seek out black athletes for diversity numbers. Like the pp wrote, the scholarship/tuition reduced athlete will always get preferential treatment when it comes to playing time.
