High School Sports
Meet the 1988 Junior Varsity Lacrosse team of Detroit Country Day School. This picture was taken during Lacrosse camp at Sauk Valley. I think that's in Ohio. I remember it always took us at least 3 hours to get there and I'd spend the entire drive there and back listening to Duran Duran over and over again. We'd spend a weekend at camp doing nothing but play Lacrosse all day. It was exhausting and challenging, but fun and rewarding.
I had a hard time making it to the Varsity team and in fact the only reaason I did was because I was a senior. At our school, seniors had to be varsity to upkeep the reputation. I personally didn't care, except for when it came to being on the Varsity Volleyball team. I didn't care for my teammates and preferred being on JV, but my coach insisted and I ended up being on both teams. My playing ability in both sports was better than the best JV player, but not as good as the worst varsity player, so I was always stuck in between. But I always had a lot of friends on the JV teams and I was always glad that we were required to take sports. I don't know what I would have done without the workout.
