Coaches would drool...

I'm reading insidelacrosse.com and the new re-design of the website looks nice.  I come across this article about a recruit for, of all placese, UVa.

"
Sounds like a perfect fit for a guy who lives by a code of “500 percent.” That means 500 groundballs and 500 reps of wall ball on a daily basis. After games, Malphrus will run laps around the field, scooping the ball, dropping it in front of himself and scooping it again. Last spring, he skipped the prom because it was three days before the championship game."

No wonder Dom Starsia teams win-he recruits good kids.  I wouldn't be surprised if they were a pre-season favorite to repeat for a National Title. 

You never know what could happen though - every team will be gunning for them and I'm sure Duke will have something to prove when they come out of the gates with Coach Danowski at the helm - another great coach.  We'll see.

I wonder how many MPHS players have 500 reps of wall ball, total, for the summer....?

    reps of wall ball for the entire summer...although catching and throwing on the run works to build up skill levels. Any commitment to improve outside of the game is a PLUS!!
