Hebron. Had 13 kids 4 years ago. Won Class D last year. Won our class C district this year.

That's awesome!  I'll be keeping an eye out for y'all!  Give 'em hell!

Apparently, Westlake threw a fit about their seeding and withdrew from hosting championship weekend.  This is after Hyde Park (I think) backed out of the super regional for the North and San Antonio this weekend.

That's a legit holy shit, although admittedly not out of the realm of possibility, knowing what I know of their HC (Ethan Burke's father).  Granted, I've only watched a dozen or so games over the years he's been here, but dude is a hothead for sure.  Not sure why they'd be upset w/ a 4 seed though - that seems pretty fair.  To blow up the whole championship weekend over that is pretty fucked up.

Weird. They got trucked by the #1 and #2 seeds during the season, plus the #3 seed played that #1 team much closer this year.

Yeah, I don't really understand throwing that kind of fit over the seeding, especially when it's voted on by every HC.  The only reason I find it remotely possible is because of who the HC is. 

edit:  As I write that, my buddy calls me back and it's true.  Parrish Episcopal and HP will host.  Fucking hell. 

Burke is an idiot for this.

Plus side is I don’t have to pay for hotels either weekend now. Downside is we will have to play on Smurf turf if we make it to the Semis. Plus side is the last two times we’ve played there, we’ve beaten Parish by 20. Downside is we will be playing somebody more competent.

2 down. 2 to go.

My nephew is on the Hebron team. I've got 3 kids of my own so I haven't seen them play a game yet but hope they can win it all again this year.

Westlake loses to Jesuit and doesn't have to worry about next weekend.  Rumor I heard is that cost the program about $50K in revenue.  I'm still just fascinated by the idea that the coach blew it all up over a perfectly rational seeding.

This is absolutely horrible.  The injury is identical to what happened to a teammate of mine in college, aside from the severity.  Dropped my boy like a sack of potatoes and I honestly thought we lost him right then and there. God bless that family and team.

Witnesses told WKYC that an Olmsted Falls player was attempting a shot on goal when the ball struck Veselic at the base of the back of the head below his helmet.

Damn, that's awful.  Saw earlier about the injury but hadn't seen that he had passed.  Wonder if this will force helmet manufacturers to cover more of the back of the neck and minimize tilt.  I think lacrosse has been good about making necessary changes to equipment.  They now require all chest protectors to be nocsae certified after a player died from a ball hitting his chest.

Championship updates:

THSLL

AA - Highland Park...crazy that they have a former D1 and Team USA HC leading them. 2 titles in his 3 years there.
A - St. Marks over Austin High.  Man, AHS getting to the finals is amazing for them!
B - Dallas Jesuit's JV team over Keller, led by one of my best friends from college's kid
C - Plano East over George Ranch
D - Guyer over Canyon (I am assuming New Braunfels?)

MCLA

D1 - Liberty over Georgia Tech...the fact that Liberty is winning in lacrosse is wild, given the nature of lacrosse players
D2 - St. Thomas over Grand Valley State

The HP/ ESD game was a big game of runs. From 5-0 at half to 5-4 then ending at 8-4.

There were really only a few minutes where it got a little close.

Same with Austin High/ St Marks. I think it was 1-1 at half, or close to it. Austin High just couldn't seem to hang on to the ball.

Boom! ESD choked on a dick!

Boom! St. Mark's won the 2nd level title!

BOOM! Hockaday won their 5th straight state title and the three star seniors finished their careers going undefeated against schools from Texas over their four years on varsity. Bitches be undefeated!
