According to Sports Illustrated/RISE (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/highschool/05/24/lax.package/index.html), Virginia is getting the top lacrosse players this fall. Of the players cited in the story:
5 Virginia (4 HS seniors, 1 a verbal commit junior)
2 Maryland
1 Penn State
1 Princeton
1 Syracuse
Most of the players are NYS, three Md, one Pennsylvania, one NJ. Hmm, maybe there are no good Canadian lax players left?

But then again, even though Canada is part of the Americas, it's not usually included when they are deciding All-Americans, as RISE was doing.
