In July, Roy Colsey was shown the love on social media.
The account for Powell Lacrosse tweeted a Colsey highlight reel with text that called him “one of the all-time great midfielders our sport has ever seen” and “an amazing leader & teammate.”
A couple days later, for Throwback Thursday, the Philadelphia Barrage sent multiple tweets with highlights from his career, also pointing out how he helped the Major League Lacrosse franchise win three league titles.
A couple months later in September, the Colsey name was once again the talk of Twitter, but it wasn’t love for Roy; it was messages of congratulations for his oldest son, Ryan, a player in the Class of 2022 with Ridgefield (Conn.) High School who’d just committed to play college lacrosse at the University of Virginia.
