They started doing something a few days ago. The track is ripped out and much of the field is excavated. There is a huge pile of dirt that is either what was taken out or is going to be put in. Littlejerk will be happy to know that all building materials are approved for use by white elites and are guaranteed to improve the performance of overage lax players. Seriously, should be a nice facility.

As a private school, the Gilman's-of-the-world have kids playing together at a maximum of four years where WI's success has been built in their little league program beginning in third grade. When you have a group of kids playing together for nine years by the time they are seniors, well...I'm sorry, WI's run of three NYS championships in the last four years says it all. It is the system, the program...whatever you want to call it. WI should be no. 1 nationally, without question.BTW - does anyone even follow the rankings published by Max Preps?? Can you believe they have WI ranked #38 nationally????

Obviously, they've never done crap in lax, otherwise they wouldn't have acted that way. Those kids think who the hell they are, and need to smacked in the mouth by whoever they play next.

So what are you saying when you played West Islip you didnt click? 18-3? And if you did click they couldnt hang with you? You've beat up on ****ty teams, and beat the &quot;better&quot; teams in division 1 which really isnt too strong this year. 2009-05-28 09:32:25 GETOFFHARRISJOCK2 <forumuser@vmix.com> http://forum.newsday.com/forums/thread/10537/ 10537 Where to start? The team looked pretty bad at Floyd. Some kids really busted their cans out there. Chewing out a kid does not always work coach. Some of the kids are NOT as good as the coach or they and their parents think they are. We looked like middle school kids playing against men. We have a lot of small kids. We don't play physical. Good things? A few kids have a LOT of heart. How do we fix this? 2009-05-22 17:39:00 ripshot25 <forumuser@vmix.com> http://forum.newsday.com/forums/thread/10514/ 10514 Garden City 15 Mepham 0Southside 18 Glen Cove 10Lynbrook 12 Carey 4Calhoun 9 Bethpage 8Hewlett 11 Division 10Any comments? 2009-05-20 17:34:31 nassau09lax <forumuser@vmix.com> http://forum.newsday.com/forums/thread/10512/ 10512 So, who is it going to be in the end? Will there be any upsets early on, or will the two expected ( Comsewogue &amp; SWR) be in the final ? I don't expect anything surprising will happen. I think Sayville has an outside chance for 3rd &amp; Rocky Point will be lucky to make it through Smithtown West. If you need to know why, check my reply in the&quot; Top Sop****res&quot; subject.

I think the kids in this case have more to do with what goes on then he does. Our coach has lots of&quot;help&quot; making descisions for him like who to play and how often. But in the end if the team wins the coach gets all the credit, right? So what about last season when all you needed to make the playoffs was a win over a week team and you could not even run kids in and out of the box the right way? Even a blind squirel will find a nut once in a while...Our JV coach should be the varsity coach but he seems the kind not to be lead around by the nose. 2009-05-19 17:17:07 Col.Kurtz <forumuser@vmix.com> http://forum.newsday.com/forums/thread/10488/ 10488 I say to the parents of the sophmores and juniors go to the Ad and get a new coach. You did it for football now do it for Lacrosse. Don't let Molosanti stick around until this group of 10th graders leave. You have a chance to do something over the next 2 years. Let coach Lucas take over or bring someone in. Also get a new defensive coach. The defensive coach cannot evaulate the talent he has. Example went to a game recently and he has the wrong guys starting. HE should start 34.7.and6 at defense. I say again Oceanside always had the talent but never the coaching needed to get to the championship level. So this young group of extremely good talent don't lose your chance for a County or State Championship vanish. 2009-05-19 09:37:37 laxman7 <forumuser@vmix.com> http://forum.newsday.com/forums/thread/10473/ 10473 Does it bother anyone else that Girls LAX gets so much excellent coverage, as they deserve to, College LAX is well covered...yet Boys LAX seems to be sidelined.

Lots of players stand around and some players seem like they never even go into the other end of the field.2. There is not nearly as much contact as I had heard there was.3. The goalie looks like a sacraficial lamb out there.4. The Girls' game has more fast breaks.5. The game seems to be a very &quot;white&quot; dominated sport.6.
