Title: Lax HS All-Americans - Just 1 Cornell-bound
Post by: billhoward on May 10, 2009, 09:50:30 PM
Cornell again appears not to be doing well in high school recruiting to the extent the HS All-America roster reflects on the future fortunes of college lacrosse. Cornell has just one HS AA recruit (but thank goodness it's a goalie). HS AA recruits (which does not include Canada but does have a smattering from Florida, Texas, Colorado - the non-traditonal states):

6 - Georgetown, Virginia
5 - Hopkins
4 - Duke, Syracuse
3 - Maryland, UNC, Notre Dame

Interesting: NJ is considered a southern state for the purposes of a HS north-south game. Among the Ivies, Harvard has two, while Brown, Cornell, and Princeton have one each. On the women's side, Cornell has no AA recruits.
