No one from these teams are going to be playing lacrosse at the D1 level or D3 for that matter. People do not realize the difference between high school and college lacrosse,especially when your used to having "outstanding" games against teams like Eastchester. Talk up your teams all you want but lets be realistic no one from these caliber teams are D1 talent. First Irvington now Kennedy.

It's like, "well, we didn't beat you 20-1 because our fifth string goalie got to play." It's bush, but we're all guilty of doing it from time to time.

Last year they were last in their league. This year, after an uneven start, they have swept their last six games and are currently 4-1 in league play and are easily looking at a 5-1 finish. Their only league defeat was against Nanuet, who are clearly dominating C-II. The Bulldogs may not be looking to win sectionals, but I imagine the athletes, the parents, and fans of lacrosse in general are pleased with the incremental steps taken each year since Irvington interscholastic lacrosse began as a modified only program four years ago. The fledgling Bulldogs and their fans have certainly earned their right to participate in the discussion of section 1 lacrosse on this forum.

I wasn't aware that this blog was really only for people to talk about Yorktown, JJ, Rye, Brewster, and the other power houses. Last I checked it say "Boys lacrosse in the Lower Hudson Valley with Joe Lombardi" at the top. Irvington is in the Lower Hudon Valley so why don't relax and let the kid talk about his team. Yes, he may be a little misguided about his team's D1 prospects and sectional chances but you don't need to be rude. He's probably a 14 year old kid with nothing else to do and if you want to respectfully disagree with him thats fine, but please try to be considerate. .......

I believe the final score was 13-5. Hastings only had 2 goals when Irvington took their starters out in the 4th. Again Irvingtons defense played a great game, and Dan Glantz played like a mad man in cage. Irvington let up the 1st 2 goals early in the game, then went on a 13-0 run.
