Although the 'main event' was a huge draw, the day was jam packed with lacrosse for all age groups. The great minds at Easton Lacrosse (Doug Appleton & Blake and Cort Kim) sponsored a clinic for the kids on the field before the game that had tomorrow's stars getting hands on teaching from ND and JHU players...and in the stands, ND head coach Kevin Corrigan and JHU frontman Dave Pietramala held a coaches clinic for the Bay Area coaches.
The best part of the day (besides the game, of course) was probably the public unveiling of the Easton Lacrosse sponsored athletes...are you ready for this?!? Newly signed Casey Powell, Brett Queener, and Michael Evans were on hand to sign autographs, hand out stickers and show off the new 2011 Easton product line. There was even a pick up game that featured Casey Powell and Brett Queener vs. 20 or so youth players...I won't tell you who won.
I have to say I was proud to see such a great outpouring from fans in the Bay Area. As an 'eastcoaster' it was cool to be on hand to such a great lacrosse event on the West Coast.
