While snow still covers the ground on Long Island, college lacrosse teams are playing games across the country. There are obviously numerous local athletes, boys and girls, playing at some of the top programs. Throughout the season I'll try to keep tabs here on how some of the lax stars are doing.
One name that jumps out in girls lacrosse is Colleen McCaffrey, who starred at Mount Sinai. She's playing at Hopkins and has gotten off to a terrific start in her freshman year. She already has seven goals and one assist for the No. 14 team in the nation. She has a team-high 14 shots for Hopkins, which is 2-2.
McCaffrey scored once in Hopkins' 18-9 win today against Cincinnati.
Rocky Point graduate Brianne LoManto has seen limited action in goal for the defending national champions, Northwestern. She's played in four games and has totaled 34 minutes of action. She's stopped four shots while giving up three goals. As a freshman she'll be a backup to starter Morgan Lathrop. Northwestern is 5-0 and has outscored opponents 99-34.
