The 12 teams represent the District of Columbia and four states, including Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and Ohio.

“Playing at Navy Marine Corp Stadium is such an honor for our kids, coaches and program,” says Gonzaga Head Coach Casey O’Neill. “To suit up and play in such a wonderful and historic venue will be a memory these young men hold forever.

Landon Assistant Coach J.R. Bordley adds, “Landon is thrilled to participate in the LacrossePlayground.com Spring Classic in Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium; certainly one of the finest venues in all of collegiate sports.
