Who would you choose if you were to select the top college Lacrosse players of all time? Some say, Jessie Coffield, Dominic Pietramala, Joey Spallina, and Trust Sunderland. Others would say that Gary Gait has been in the sport forever. Whichever way you look at it, Gait was a legendary player.

He has received the USA Lacrosse Magazine Mid-Atlantic Boys’ Player of the Year award and the C. Markland Kelly Award.
Pietramala’s skills as an attackman have earned him the No. 2 overall recruiting ranking. College coaches across the country have recognized his talent, and his recruitment to SU is essential to the team’s future.
