Shout out to McNally and Alleyne for repping Rocklnd lax.
What’s the deal with Ben Andreycak being left off these teams? He is a two time All American.
One Upstate kid quit his committed school lacrosse paid college summer session after 5 days and is attending the showcase. There are boys who were voted in but honored their school commitment over a showcase. Ben Andreycak may have been in that kind of situation. Wonder how the schools and coaches feel about the kid who bails to play in an All Star game?
I noticed this Warwick Valley player: James Kolesar (A), Warwick, N.Y., Warwick Valley HS
I don’t know too much about him. I assume he is a talented player. Anyone seen him play? I know that Warwick is developing some strong lacrosse on both the boys and girls youth levels. Good to see that it is paying off for them.
Where is Ben Andreyck? He was a two time All-American from Fordham Prep.
Sorry for the repeat. Didn’t see LAXROLL’s comment. Also for misspelling Ben’s last name.
Still would like an answer.
Ben Andreycak i believe is playing in the Sound Shore Summer League for Boozin Birdies…team with kids from Iona Prep and Fordham Prep…I think its him because that is the name on the jersey
Do ya thing Shane Fee. Yeah boi!
