This past weekend I missed the NCAA lacrosse championships for the first time since 2009. However, I have a good reason for it.
I was coaching Hopkinton (N.H.) High School's junior varsity boys lacrosse team in the New Hampshire state tournament.
Yes, there are JV tournaments. This was my second one and it was a lot of fun. Right out of the gate, I’ll let you know that we went 2-2-1 and did not make the finals.
Of course, that’s not really the point of a JV tournament. We’re all just there to learn and have fun.
