Redwings,
All current Senior's, Junior's and any player who was on Varsity last year have been invited by the Benet Girls Lacrosse team to compete in a friendly game using girls rules (maybe alternate between face offs and draws) on Friday October 28th at Benedictine Stadium. There will be Pizza after the game so let's have some fun and let me know who would like to play.

Redwings,
Thank you for your continued patience as we organize the teams and the practice schedules.
This year we are blessed with a large and talented Freshman class that will forever change the course of Benet lacrosse.
As a consequence, this will be the first year of competition for a limited number of Junior Varsity roster positions.
The JV tryouts will be open to: - All Juniors
- All Sophomores
The JV Tryout Schedule will be: - Tuesday at Players Indoor from 5-7pm.
- Wednesday at the Free Evangelical Church (parking lot) on the corner of Wehrli and Hobson Roads from 3:30 to 5:00pm
- Thursday at Players Indoor from 5-7pm.
- Friday at Players Indoor from 5-7pm.
The criteria used for JV roster selection will be: - lacrosse skill
- athleticism
- potential.
How the players earn a Junior Varsity roster position will follow a process like this: - Naturally, the players demonstrating the highest lacrosse talent will earn roster spots.
- Given players of comparable talent, the better athlete (e.g. black shirt) will earn the JV jersey over the lesser athlete.
- Given players of comparable talent and comparable athleticism, an underclassman will earn the JV jersey since he has the greater potential in the program.
-- We want to be straight-forward with all our players and their parents BEFORE Junior Varsity tryouts begin on Tuesday. Everyone needs to understand that some players will not make the Junior Varsity roster in 2011.Sophomores who do not make the JV roster will be eligible to play on the Frosh team Juniors who do not make the JV roster will be asked to tryout for Varsity in 2012.
--
Finally, our wonderful Parent Board is not part of the roster process. Please spare them if your son does not make the JV team -- they have nothing to do with roster decisions !!!
Roster reductions are tough on coaches too -- they like all the players and they want them to succeed in life, in the classroom and on the lacrosse field.
Best wishes to everyone this season --- and go Redwings !!!

Redwing Lacrosse Family, First
of all, the Parent Board would like to wish you all a Happy
Thanksgiving. The Benet Lacrosse Club has much to be thankful for as we
head into our 7th season. The rosters are full, the talent
is deep and the enthusiasm is immense. We thank you for your support of
this program. I have had a number of questions about the grey sweatshirts and the Ties that we will be selling. The sweat shirts are still available and can be ordered directly through Jane Doyle. She can be reached at janedoyle5@yahoo.com. The deadline for these is December 2. The
ties will be available before Christmas. When they arrive I will send
out an e-mail to the group and I will sell them one day after school at
Benet on a first come first serve basis. We ordered 30 Black and 30 Red
ties as shown below. The ties will be sold for $25 each. The
electronic store is now closed, We had over 50 families participate
ordering over 150 items. The Benet Lacrosse Logo will be hard to miss
on Campus this year! If you have any questions please call or send an e-mail. Matt matt.dingens@caruscorporation.com |
