Practice started Monday for the St. Xavier Bombers. I'll be working with one of the developmental JV teams (the White team) this year, along with Darryl Williamson. Darryl is a teacher at St. X who just got involved with lacrosse last year. His background is football. Still, coaching is coaching. He knows the kids, which is more than I can say.
We coaches have begun our player evaluations, assessing things like intensity, skills, strength & speed, and conditioning. We're trying to figure out who the best 35 are for the varsity. With well over 100 kids, it's a big job. There will be a number of kids at the JV level this year who would probably be starting on almost anybody else's varsity in this town.
As far as the White team, we're gonna play some defense. We've got some outstanding athletes in that group. As such, we're gonna get after it and press, press, press. Should be fun to watch. Stay tuned.
