That 2006 Prep/Norwalk State Champion Lacrosse Final was a 13-12 Quad OT (thats 4 OT’s)with Prep winning. I think Snellman had 6 or 7 Goals, Courson from Prep had about the same…still quite a game and the Norwalk team put several players into D1…Snellman, Forite, Adams, Lanzaro, McGlochton, probably some i’m missing….Prep D1 players from that game…Courson, Cunningham, Rotanz, the Goalie and more that I am missing. Quite a bit of talent on the field that day!!!

Sorry to rock all your boats…But let the big kid, Kaden throw the ball to you, eh?…It’s a tight spiral, but a little innacurate sometimes…The boy, Kaden, just needs practice throwing the ball to get it down…He’s so strong & big he will run over anyone…I’m just saying, expand your horizons with this kid…OK?…He can throw the ball, and run over anybody…

Geez Sean…I know you have no control over this…However, It’s still funny…I’m waiting for the FCIAC allstars, or there abouts…lol..Whatever…Give us something to use our constitutional rights…To get what we have a right to…But, I know that the coaches gangup in the “the Old boy network”…Too competitive now…Hell, you really have to farm the kids now…They are so big now..How are you going to wade thru that family mess?…You aren’t paid enough to be just Coach…Now you have to be Parental arbitrator, and field an inferior team due to hysterical, idiot parents..LOL…Hell, I’d quit before kneeling before them…But suit yourself…

To fan, and laxfan2,

Don’t forget Jim Dunster from Greenwich High…He was both a very good football, and lax player for the Cardinals…2 time High School All-American in LAX, 3 time all state…Also, 2 time all state in football…He chose an LAX scholarship from North Carolina where he started 14 of 17 games as a Freshman last year, and was 7th on the team in scoring as a mid-fielder…The Tar Heels are a top National program in LAX, and made the NCAA quarter finals last year…They are ranked 4th in the pre-season 2010 polls, behind Duke, Syracuse, and Virginia…

You people should all get your heads wrapped aroung rugby. Rugby is an international sport that provides the hitting of football, the non-stop action of lacrosse and the skill of basketball. If you saw the Clint Eastwood movie “Invictus” you will realize that it evokes team play in a way no other sport can claim.
And a national treasure is in your own backyard.
The Greenwich Cardinals finished second in the country in 2002, and made it to the Sweet Sixteen three years in a row in 05, 06 and 07. No other sport in Fairfield county can clainm to represent like that.

It is nice to know that Greenwich is still ahead of the curve for most of you burgs out there. I suppose after the highly commercial Olympics have made the sport more mainstream in the US, the rest of you will realize what a great sport rugby is, and you will all realize what an accomplishment GHS has in it’s rugby program. But still, it is scary that people from Greenwich recognize a great sport and pour their hearts into it while the rest of you need to be told by some network and some sponsors that it is a great game.
