Long Island lacrosse — and more specifically Nassau lacrosse — lost one of its mainstays over the weekend.

Jack White, a historian and statistician who was a fixture at varsity games at Garden City High School, died over the weekend at age 70 from what his son described as a “sudden cardiac event,” according to a report by Bob Herzog in Newsday.

White, a retired teacher at Garden City, generously provided stats and info for PA announcers, sports reporters and sportscasters — in a generous and gentlemanly manner.

In addition to being a fixture at Garden City lacrosse games, he was also statistician for the school’s boys basketball and football teams, but his knowledge extended beyond those sports.

“If you wanted to know the last time the badminton team won a league title, he could tell you that,” Garden City lacrosse coach Steve Finnell said.
