Lacrosse and Sport

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!
