EPSLA to Showcase its Top Juniors and Sophomores
 
The top junior and sophomore prospects from The Eastern Pennsylvania Scholastic Lacrosse Association will be on display for college recruiters on Thursday, June 16, 2011 at Plymouth Whitemarsh High School . The Showcase will consist of two games, one for sophomores and one for juniors. Each game will feature a public school team vs. a private school team. The junior game will be played first at 5:45 PM, and the sophmore game will follow immediately afterwards.  
“The event will start a rigorous summer recruiting circuit that many of our players endure.  We believe the best players in Eastern PA will be showing their talents on June 16th at Plymouth Whitemarsh,” said EPSLA President and Episcopal Academy Head Coach Andy Hayes.
This event has been created in the spirit of the EPSLA’s mission statement “to promote the growth of lacrosse in Eastern Pennsylvania.” The EPSLA has historically organized an end-of-year tournament for all high school teams in the region. With the sanctioning of boys’ lacrosse by the PIAA, the tournament is now in the hands of the state organization and is therefore limited to PIAA member schools—a new configuration that excludes some of the best programs in the region. The EPSLA’s Showcase promises to redress that problem by ensuring all the top juniors and sophomores from EPSLA member schools will have the opportunity to showcase their talents for college recruiters. We also fully expect The Showcase to recapture the excitement of previous years’ tournaments.
The four teams for The Showcase will be selected through a tryout at Episcopal Academy on June 5th. Each team will carry 22 players and will be coached by a staff of EPSLA head coaches selected by their peers.  The tryouts are tentatively scheduled for 9:30am-12:30pm (sophomores) and 12:30pm-3:30pm(juniors).
The inaugural EPSLA Sophomore and Junior Showcase was a huge success and proved  to be an excellent recruiting opportunity for the area’s elite lacrosse underclassmen as it was attended by over 60 Division I, II, and III head coaches and assistants.
“This is a tremendous event and a lot of hard work and  hours are put in by the EPSLA coaches at this busy time of the season to promote our area as a national hotbed for lacrosse talent,” said Neshaminy Head Coach Josh Hanlon.  “This event is really all about the kids.”
