Lax Gets Underway
There may be snow on the ground. It may be February. However, lacrosse season is getting underway. For most private high schools in the area, practice started on Monday. At St. Paul's School in Brooklandville, they are preparing for a championship season; most starters are returning and are seniors. Alex Chay (Georgetown), Jeff Fountain (Georgetown), Patrick Powderly (Syracuse), and Zach Linkous (UMBC) make up the team's senior leadership. Boys' Latin School in Baltimore is also getting a lot of attention, as they are packed with young talent. Jeff Chase, Wells Stanwick, and Patrick Foster will lead that team. Stanwick is the younger brother of current University of Virgina laxer Steele Stanwick. Calvert Hall and Gilman lost a lot of seniors after finishing as the winner and runner-up of the conference at the end of the 2009 season, respectively. This season, there has been a change in the MIAA "A" Conference, as there will be two divisions. In the black division will be Calvert Hall, Loyola, McDonogh, Severn, and St. Paul's. While the red division will contain Spalding, Boys' Latin, Mt. St. Joe, Gilman, and St. Mary's. Each team in the red division will play each other twice; the same will go for the black division. This new set-up allows for extra conference games to be played, causing a decrease in out of conference, meaningless games.
