I agree with '2003 Grad' - this bickering about the quality of different schools is tiresome to read and spectacularly uninformative. While I always proclaim Holy Cross as the best college in the country, I do so openly acknowledging my bias and without bad mouthing other schools...except, of course, BC, on which any right-thinking person would agree...
We had some decent Lacrosse teams in the '80's and I believe we can improve again. The sudden high-profile of Patriot League Lacrosse (this was Navy's 1st year in the league) and the fact that they included the Lacrosse program in the new athletic fund-raising scheme are good signs.

Sorry for provoking a Patriot League debate. "THERE ARE PLENTY OF LACROSSE PLAYERS WITH THE ACADEMIC GOODS NECESSARY TO GET INTO HOLY CROSS!" was the key point of the paragraph in the first e-mail. I'm not trying to judge whether our school is any better or worse than our peer group. Those schools get lacrosse players admitted....8-10 a year.....we should be able to as well. It just takes an organized and dedicated effort.
