Thomas lax fact of the day

Did you know 2013 was the first year since 2008 Thomas had an all conference performer? In 2013 we had two! First team goalie Jesse Morkeski & second team midfielder Gunnar Shelton who will be returning this spring for his senior campaign.

2014 Captains



         I’m proud to announce the captains for the 2014 campaign are senior Gunnar Shelton & sophomore Zac Crimmin.  The high character, hard work, and leadership theses two display consistently made the decision to make them captains a no-brainer. Last year we had three terrific captains unfortunately all three were seniors but both Zac & Gunnar being student-athletes of such high character made the decision making process on the new captains an easy one.

Get your popcorn out this spring



         I know this blog is supposed to be about all things Thomas lacrosse so I apologize ahead of time for changing the aim of the blog a bit for this particular entry.
               
         Being a fan of the game I can’t hold back my excitement to finally check out the “new” ACC in lacrosse action this spring. Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Syracuse, and Virginia in one conference! Need I say more? This is the lacrosse equivalent of the SEC in college football. I think it’s a pretty fair assessment to assume the national championship will be coming out of the ACC this year. I don’t think anyone who follows the game of lax would be shocked to see any of the six ACC teams playing on Memorial Day this year.  
                
         As the snow starts to melt (I hope sooner rather than later) and the college lacrosse season begins to ramp up get your popcorn out and make sure you set your DVR to record the ACC in action this spring.
