Fresh off this year's Space Coast Elite Lacrosse Pro Camp that brings Roger, Steve, and their host (and great friends) of professional lacrosse players and college coaches together each year, they talk about the love of lacrosse and the lacrosse of love.  They reflect on the closeness of the lacrosse community and in particular how the lax community rallied around the family of one of its finest and promising young stars, 18 year old Space Coast Stingrays phenom, Corbin Graves. 

There was more love than typical in this year's camp and coaches an players felt that the uniquely special spirit of Corbin was with us to make us really appreciate the here and now of the joy of lacrosse and the souls that make it happen, from coaches to parents to players.  This one is for you Corbin!  We will always love you!

Lacrosse is unique as a sport in that it attracts not just the desire to be great in sport, but high academic and career achievement outside of sport.  This is one reason why high academic achievement and Ivy League colleges are commonly contenders for national championships…look no further than 2018 National Champions Yale University.

In this episode Roger and Steve celebrate this aspect of lacrosse and the entrepreneurial spirit the sport fosters among its participants as they showcase Syracuse legend, MLL & NLL Pro, and Team USA member Brian Megill and his company Host Events Inc.
