2010 Newsletters

Welcome to SportsFive Newsletters,

That long wait from January to opening day is finally over and what weather to start the first day of the 2010 lacrosse campaigns. There certainly should be some terrific games this year, even with the NYS mandate cutting the maximum number of regular season games to sixteen.

We have been working hard, here at SportsFive, and have a number of new features that we think you may enjoy this year. We have featured a few of them below.

Our annual lacrosse previews are being compiled, although we are still missing a lot reports from coaches. We hope to have have them published, along with our preseason rankings, before the games begin.

Happy Days - Until Next Time,

The SportsFive Team

Week 1

-- NEW THIS SEASON: A NEW GAME REPORT FORMAT

This year, when the game reports begin, you will see a new format for each game that gives you the quick view of the game, with the players scoring goals and assists and the goal performance stats along with the scores by quarter.

Player stats are linked in the box to their Player Profile records. Click here to see an example..

-- HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW PLAYER PROFILE AREA?

The "Player Profile" area contains individual pages for each of the more than 2,300 Section Five lacrosse players in the database. Information includes the player's team, class, scorebook data (starting in 2007), sectional awards won and a comment area, where team awards, club team membership and other lacrosse information may be found.

The "College Lists" are an effort to keep track of graduates who are continuing to play lacrosse at the college level.

Understanding that information is constantly changing we are happy to have Coaches, parents and players request updates or changes.

Check out the Player Profile Section.

-- LACRROSE SCHOLARSHIP FOR SECTION FIVE SENIOR

A scholarship fund was established in the memory of Jeff Milano-Johnson, the 14 year old varsity lacrosse high school freshman who died while practicing for a lacrosse game in 2007.

One Section V Girl or Boy High School Senior Lacrosse Player will be awarded a $500 scholarship. The 2009 Section V scholarship winner was Kyle Van Thof from Penfield.

The Section V lacrosse player must demonstrate enthusiasm for life, compassion, perseverance, service to others and creativity (with a touch of goofiness).

Applications and letters of recommendation for the scholarship fund will be accepted up until May 15, 2009.

For information on Jeff Milano-Johnson go to www.jmj23fund.org

A copy of the scholarship packet is available at SportsFive.NET.
