Morristown Freshman Boys Lacrosse team begins their 2025 season today with a home matchup against Montville.
The team is ready to compete and set the tone for a strong season ahead. Let’s get to work!#Gameday #MorristownLacrosse #FreshmanLax #HighSchoolLacrosse #GoColonials

Have to respect this. After Colgate MLAX received two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties from the bench in a close game against Syracuse, Head Coach Matt Karweck took responsibility.

"I tell my team all the time about discipline and poise and I didn't do it, frankly," he said.

Hard-fought battles in the NXT Mid-Atlantic Spring League today for Team 91 NJ 2029! They showed grit, determination, and plenty of fight, coming up just short in two tight matchups. Plenty to build on and excited to watch their growth this spring! #Lacrosse #GrowTheGame #LaxLife

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Dan Quinn said, "Sometimes as coaches and leaders, you have to tell them the things they don't want to hear."

"I'm comfortable doing that because they know I come from a place that I care about them, I love them, and I want the best for them."

As players, be grateful when a coach tells you the truth because it shows you they care.

They tell you the truth because they believe in you and your potential.
• They want what's best for you.
• They care about you as a person.
• They see what you're capable of, even when you don't.

Great leaders hold you accountable because they know it's the only way to help you grow into your best self.

It means telling the hard truths while showing empathy and belief in your potential.

Great Coaches Balance 3 Things:
1. Caring for you - Great coaches want what's best for you. They care for you as a person and believe in you and your potential. This is why they hold you to a high standard - they see what you can become, even when you don’t yet.

2. Having high standards - High standards set expectations. It creates clarity and direction about what habits and actions are expected. Great coaches set the bar high because they want the best for you, not because it’s easy. When someone believes in you enough to expect greatness, it inspires you to rise to the challenge.

3. Pushing you to grow before your comfort zone - Growth doesn’t happen without discomfort, and this is where development starts. Great coaches look to challenge you and develop you over time. This means expecting challenges, facing adversity, and refusing to accept the status quo.

Bottom Line: People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Leadership will always be a relationship business.

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

“We live in a world right now in society where it’s look at me, look at me, look what I did. We try to get them to focus on an attitude of gratitude. An idea of serving others and what does that look like, what does that feel like?”
Gratitude has immeasurable value.

From @laxreference Shooting % in D1 lacrosse correlates more to wins/losses than any other metric other than shooting efficiency which takes in to consideration saves & missed shots.

DI teams only won 18% of the time when their shooting % was lower.

Is this true in the PLL?

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Bill Parcells said, "Losers assemble in little groups and complain about the coaches and the players in other little groups."

"But winners assemble as a team."

Winners dedicate themselves to personal excellence and team excellence.
