Indoor Practice today 4:30 - 6:00 pm in the gym
Recap
This past week we notched another
victory with a road win against Westerly
– final score - 15 to 5. Our
record is now 4-0 and we are only one of two undefeated teams left in D2 South. The dedication and hard-work by
each athlete during practice this past week will go a long way in keeping
our momentum going into this coming week.
A big thanks to the DeCubellis family for providing drinks
/ snacks on the bus ride home after the game.
This Week’s Plans
We are entering the middle part
of the season, and playing our toughest
competition this week. We really need to pick up our intensity
and focus on fundamentals, skills and conditioning if we want to continue our success. We have three games this week:
Monday – 3:45 pm at home
versus Tiverton
Wednesday – 3:45 pm at home
versus Middletown – No JV game
Friday – 7:00 pm away versus
Portsmouth (directions)
- No JV Game
To prepare for these games we
have practice
TODAY from 3-5 pm. Rain is predicted this
afternoon so we may be practicing in the gym.
An announcement will be made if there are any changes. Practice will be at the usual time Tuesday
and Thursday from 3:45 – 5:45. We will also have practice next Sunday from 3-5 pm as there are three games scheduled for next week on Monday, Tuesday and
Thursday. We may see some rain this week
which could affect our schedule (weather).
Notifications of schedule changes will be communicated via Email, Text
mail and posted on the website.
US Lacrosse All-Academic Honors
All
juniors and seniors may be considered for the US Lacrosse all-academic honor. Players interested in being nominated for honor
must submit a nomination (form)
to coach Ken with their academic information verified by the school no later
than Friday May 18, 2012. The past two
years, we have had Narragansett athletes selected for this honor: 2011
list, 2010

for this award.
Important Dates
There are some upcoming dates you need to
be aware of:
JV Tournament – Tentatively
scheduled for May 19, 2012 (rain date
May 20, 2012). I need to know how
many JV players are available to play ASAP to determine if we should
participate.
Coaches Select Game (formerly the all-star game) – June 4, 2012 – location TBA. After each varsity game, coaches from each
team select an impact offensive and defensive player from the opposing team as
a candidate for this game. At the end of
the season, players receiving the most votes are selected to play.
All-Division Awards
Banquet
– June 13, 2012, 6pm at the West Valley
Inn. Tickets will be approximately
$20 per person. All players / parents
are invited. I need a head count as soon
as possible to reserve seats for Narragansett.
Player Stats / Game Pictures
Parents –
if you have been keeping statistics during the games, please provide this information to me so I can verify each players stats. I have been reviewing video from each game to
verify stats for accuracy, but your input is a good cross check to verify my
results. Player stats can be viewed at (MaxPreps). Also, if anyone has been taking still photos of
the action at our games, please send these to me so I can use them on the web
site. Thanks to all of you for your
continued support.
