Wabash Lacrosse is a new varsity sport this year.  That means two things.

First, it will take a little time, even for the Little Giants.  I think we’ll be very competitive – playing for the conference title and the NCAA postseason – in the not-too-distant future.  But it won’t be next Tuesday…

Second, the drive to bring Lacrosse to Wabash at this level didn’t start yesterday.  Guys have been playing Lacrosse as a Club sport for a couple of years.  Five of these pioneers were back on campus last weekend to cheer on the Little Giants.  Rob Walker, Nick Prihoda, and David Coates were here when it all started and Jacob Bradley joined those guys as well.  Alex Barnstead is a younger but no less enthusiastic alumnus.

Bottom line – these guys and their teammates started it all and it’s their drive and determination that has us where we are today.  They have to be very proud of what they started!
