LAX '12

Steele Stanwick will be back to quarterback the attack next year...


Just because I'm a "look ahead to next year" geek who loves to sit at the computer and engage in shameless rosterbation, here is my best stab at the UVA lacrosse team that will try to defend the national championship next year.  (Hint: I think the team is LOADED.)

Starters from the nat'l championship game listed in bold.

A) Steele Stanwick, Sr.
A) Chris Bocklet, Sr.
A) Nick O'Reilly, Jr.
M) Colin Briggs, Sr.
M) Matt White, Jr.
M) Rob Emery, So.
D) Matt Lovejoy, Sr.
D) Chris Clements, Sr.
D) Scott McWilliams, So.
G) Rob Fortunato, Sr.
FOGO) Ryan Benincasa, Sr.

Key Reserves:
A) Matt Cockerton, Jr.
A) Matt Kugler, Sr.
A) Connor English, Jr.
M) Chris LaPierre, Jr.
M) Blake Riley, Jr.
M) Pat Harbeson, So.
D) Wyatt Melzer, Sr.
D) Harry Prevas, Jr.
D) Frank Price, So.
G) Conor McGee, Jr.

We have to replace our star goalie and our primary face-off guy, but the offense that led the way through the NCAA tournament returns intact.  On the back of Steele Stanwick, I'm thinking we'll probably be preseason #1.  Maybe 2012 is the year we can get the Duke monkey off of our back.  I think we have an excellent chance to repeat... can't wait to watch the season unfold, in just under eight months!
