Team LAXFU is ready for another journey to Lake Placid, NY for the 21st annual Lake Placid Summit Lacrosse Tournament. Competing in the Men’s D1 Master’s Division, the squad will have their work cut out for them. On Friday at 8:30am the team faces off against the Olde Quakers, and then a few hours later will take on the Syracuse powerhouse team, Burnt Orange.
Playing two games in one day is rough enough, but when one of those games is against the likes of Casey Powell, Ryan Powell, Roy Colsey, Pat McCabe, Ric Beardsley, Rob Kavovit, Chris Cercy, and Doug Jackson, you know it will be a long day. (Check out the highlights from last year’s Master’s D1 finals when Rusty Red (Cornell alumni) took home the 2009 title over Burnt Orange.
UPDATE: Team Jagermeister has withdrawn from the tourney, so the schedules have changed. It now appears that Team LAXFU will open against Team Harpoon/Native Staffing, and the winner of that will play Rusty Red (’09 Champs).
Team LAXFU’s 2009 goalie, Jason Gebhardt, has defected back to his ‘Cuse brethren and will play with Burnt Orange this year. Fortunately LAXFU still has All-American legend Mike Zoanetti (Rutgers), along with veteran net-minder Bobby Rust (Syracuse).
In addition to the goalie change, the team has also picked up many new faces from the Princeton Tigers, along with their predominantly West Genesee Wildcat-filled roster.
