Few high school players excel in the two key parts of the posssession game — groundballs and faceoffs — more than McCormack.
So perhaps it’s appropriate that McCormack’s college destination is Cornell, a college program that excelled in both areas en route to its appearance in this past season’s NCAA Division I championship game — a 10-9 overtime loss to Syracuse.
But before he arrives in Ithaca, McCormack has some unfinished business at Rye.

One of the top rising seniors in the state, Rye midfielder Cole McCormack, just informed me that he has given a verbal commitment to attend 2009 NCAA Division I finalist Cornell.
Things looked pretty bleak for the Syracuse men’s lacrosse team late in the fourth quarter of today’s NCAA Division I championship game.
Cornell had taken its biggest lead — at three goals — with 5:31 remaining and were controlling the pace, running a patient, ball-control offense.
But the Orange battled back and scored the last four goals of the game to pick up a miraculous 10-9 overtime win for their second straight title at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. It’s Syracuse’s record 11th national title.
Cold Spring Harbor has been a model of consistency among programs in the region this decade.
And that’s exactly the word you can use to describe the playing style of Cornell-bound junior midfielder Christian Kennedy.
We caught up with him after the Seahawks’ 7-3 win at Saturday on Saturday.
