Dear young athletes- keep this photo saved to your phone and show the next person who says you have to focus on one sport in HS.
The amount of kids I’ve heard say “I can’t risk getting hurt” or “my coach won’t let me” drives me crazy.
You get one shot to be a HS athlete.

Congratulations to ‘26 Midfielder Carter Haun on his commitment to @CSUVikingsLax !!
Carter is a talented, creative, intelligent dude that will add a spark in the middle of the field and a lot more to the Vikes.
Congrats Carter! We are proud of you.

Carter Haun (2026). Matchup nightmare, explosive, well-rounded, efficient midfielder. Just a bit of his production so far this Spring ⬇️🦅
Big 2-0 @MSLA_Champions weekend for the boys.
Proud of the well rounded team effort and energy, including these big G’s today vs a great North Allegheny team.
Excited to get back to work and better this week 🦅

“The best chance of developing a D1 scholarship athlete is essentially to do the exact opposite of what our current youth sports fiasco promotes.”
Great perspective for youth lacrosse parents considering whether or not to engage in the summer rat race. https://t.co/nWNvXKrG0v
Got better and brought home some hardware 🏆 from Michigan this weekend.
Proud of these dudes and the 100+ other Milford box players that competed this season.
👀 ahead to the Spring 🦅

CONGRATULATIONS to @Milford_Eagles alum Jack Hannah on being named to the ALL-WORLD team after leading Team USA to a Silver Medal at the World Lacrosse Box Championships!! 🦅
Some more of @jackhannah123 ‘s ALL-WORLD performance with @USAMLax this past week!
Jack led arguably the best Team USA box team ever to a Silver Medal, and continues to stand out as one of the best offensive players in the world!
An A+ dude as well #EAGLEPRIDE 🦅
Youth sports are in a generation-long identity crisis.
The main issue is the fear of falling behind.
Adult fear creates a “radiating effect” for motivated kids:
1. Once selected, kids get more sport-specific practice
2. Narrow practice increases probability of junior success at the price of senior success
3. More specialized practice early gets players selected
4. Immediate success is interpreted as a sign this process works
Another strong box season in the books - Fun weekend in Michigan competing with the boys.
Proud of our 5/6, JH, HS B, and HS A teams who’ve put in work developing in the box this winter, and representing Milford well the whole way.
Excited to get back to work this Spring 🦅
