High School Zone: New Jersey
Rutgers has been making its mark on the tristate recruiting scene since Brian Brecht took over as Scarlet Knights’ head coach prior to this past season. The commitment comes from one of the top attackmen in the Garden City. He’s rising junior Jules Heningburg, who has good size (6-foot-2, 168), stick skills and athleticism. Heningburg […]
It was a week that started with a first college commitment by a rising sophomore from a tristate area school — Orleans, Ontario native Jake Fox of Trinity-Pawling (pictured above) — and ended with the first commit by a tristate resident who’s a rising sophomore — Brian Willetts of Smithtown East. In between, the Maverik Showtime […]

First came New Jersey. Then Nassau. And Suffolk. And the PSAL. Followed by the South-West Connecticut Conference and Section 1. Today, more postseason high school tournament pairings from the nation’s No. 1 hotbed for lacrosse, the New York/New Jersey/Connecticut tristate region, will be unveiled. We are expecting to have seeds for the FCIAC sometime in […]
Postseason action will be front and center today — in the NCAA at least. (Check the links below for today’s first-round men’s and women’s collegiate games.) For most of the region, it’s the final weekend of the regular season. Except in Nassau County. The Section 8 playoffs started yesterday with four Class B games. Unbeaten […]
It’s a best of three. But right now, things look pretty promising for Chaminade. The Flyers won 11-8 at St. A’s yesterday, staying in control after jumping out to a 4-0 lead. Coupled with a 6-5 win at Chaminade earlier in the season, and the Flyers have swept the regular-season series against the Friars for […]
Sometimes, we forget that the game itself is not the biggest thing. And that the games are just that – games. So when those in the lacrosse community come together to embrace a cause that’s so much more than the score, it’s especially refreshing. We’ve seen quite a few examples of that the last few […]
There’s one problem with what is a stacked Saturday of big games from the morning through the evening. Where do we start? How about chronologically, with 10 a.m. games between Hicksville and host Baldwin and visiting Smithtown East and Northport. At 10:30 a.m., there’s a nice matchup between defending Class A state champ Farmingdale and […]

Today’s most highly anticipated high school games in the region did not disappoint. Yorktown rallied from a two-goal […]
As we noted here yesterday, a handful of Long Island teams played their openers last week. Most, though, will be getting thing started this week. Many Section 1 and some Section 9 teams get things started next week, with most Connecticut and New Jersey squads getting going the week after that. In boys action today, […]
We’re a week away from the unofficial opening day in the nation’s No. 1 hotbed for lacrosse, the New York/New Jersey/Connecticut tristate region. Next Tuesday, March 20, Syosset, seeded first in Nassau County Class A by coaches in the preseason, takes on two-time Class B state finalists Garden City, at Garden City. With the season […]
They’ve been preparing — and in many cases, practicing on their own — for weeks if not months. But tomorrow, it’s time for the real thing. Monday marks the official start of practice and tryouts for high school teams throughout the region. At Suffern, you’ll have to excuse Willie Sanchez, Peter Sharp, John Redgate and […]
