Morgantown, Feb. 17 - As this website develops I will move things around to hopefully be more efficient. Today, "News" , has been grouped with "Directory". Fresh items will be posted here on the front page and on the area page. If you are looking for lacrosse news in your area, go to the NEWS & DIRECTORY and click on your area. As news gets "old" it will disappear from the front page, but will remain on the area page in some form. As it ages there, it may be archived and made accessible from that page.
FORMS has been added. Presently, the only form is the Athletic Insurance Verification Form required for the Morgantown Middle School Program. Program administrators may submit their form for posting. It will save everyone a lot of time.

The first day of practice and snow is in the forecast.... of course!   Morgantown, University, & Fairmont High schools boys and girls teams all start their seasons today. Although lacrosse is not "sanctioned" be the WVSSAC, the teams abide by their rules. Most of the teams the West Virginians play in Pennsylvania have been practicing for over a month, or more, so the locals have a lot of catching up to do. All of the coaches hope their players have kept themselves in some sort of shape.
