In just over a month, the Rebels will be playing for real.
After weeks and weeks of preparation, perennial Section 1 (N.Y.) Class A title contender Lakeland/Panas starts the regular season with a March 28 game at Arlington.
LP last won the sectional title in 2010 before losing to West Islip in the state semifinals.
How do the Rebels look in 2013?
For more, we check in with Brian Prunty.
A junior attackman, who has good size at 6-foot-3, 200 pounds, is strong with either hand. This past December, he verbally committed to Siena College, where his brother Conor is one of the Saints’ leading players.
Now, here are Brian’s perspectives on the upcoming season.
What have you been doing to get ready for the season?
The team has been running and playing three days a week, and then we have one game a weekend at the House of Sports (in Ardsley, N.Y.). Personally I have been lifting, working on my agility and shooting.
How does your schedule look, what games are you looking forward to most, and who are some of your scrimmages against?
We have a tough schedule we open up with national power Loyola-Blakefield from Maryland. We also play Penn Yann, Greenwich, and Shenandoah.
As well as those out-of-section teams we also looking forward to playing Mahopac, Yorktown, John Jay and Somers.
What player or players on your team do you think will surprise some people this season?
Greg Lenane. It will be his first year starting on varsity. He’s an athletic junior who plays great on-ball defense.
What do you think the strength of your team will be this year?
Playing team defense, and translating that into fast breaks for our offense.
How do you view the race in your league and who do you think some of the contending teams will be?
I think the contending teams will be us, Mahopac, Mamaroneck and Arlington.
