While many working in North-

among them.
The Wilkes University profes-

school’s engineering program,
commutes two hours from Qua-

day.
“Seventy five miles each way,

said.
When he first took his job at

Local girls lacrosse teams
play independent schedules
during the regular season
before vying for the district
and state crown. Local boys
teams also will compete for
PIAA honors.
The Wyoming Seminary
girls lacrosse team joined the
PIAA this year and Blue
Knight girls coach Catie Ker-
say is excited in the sport’s
growth locally. Previously, the
Blue Knights traveled as far as
Buffalo, N.Y., for their games.
“It’s exciting to see some
programs grow since we used
to spend so much time trav-
eling to New York state and
Philadelphia for games,” said
Kersay. “There is such amaz-
ing female talent in this area,
and lacrosse would be a per-
fect fit for them.”
Part of the problem of gen-
erating interest is finding
good coaches locally. Stahovic
said that softball, baseball and
offseason field hockey are
very entrenched sports in the
spring and summer months.
“It’s so foreign that it’s hard
to bring in something new,”

Stahovic said. “The trick is

and not parents that are read-
ing books on lacrosse. In
other states, kids are getting a
stick in their hand as early as
elementary school.”
Kersay said girls lacrosse
will become more popular
because of the elimination of
girls soccer as a spring sport
in the coming years. With five
area Division III college pro-
grams – King’s, Wilkes, Miser-
icordia, Marywood and Scran-
ton – having summer camps
for youth players, lacrosse will
be an easy transition for field
hockey, ice hockey and bas-
ketball players.
“Some of the local colleges
having programs and camps
really boosts the enthusiasm
and skill sets for kids. Now
girls are learning in middle
school as opposed to being
freshmen,” said Kersay.

Tunkhannock’s Appolonia
said that he is trying to get
more schools involved so he
can create a Wyoming Valley
league to cut down on trans-
portation costs. With school
districts’ budgetary crunches,
District 2 chairman Frank
Majikes isn’t overly optimistic
about the growth of lacrosse
in the near future.
“With the budget crisis,’’ he
said, “I don’t know how many
schools are going to be start-
ing lacrosse programs.”
While schools such as
Tunkhannock are funded by
their school districts, some
teams are forced to be funded
externally. Dallas is funded by Dallas lacrosse goalie Dana Jolley puts her head Wyoming Seminary lacrosse head coach Catie Kersey high-fives Sem’s Christine Lacrosse sticks, Wyoming Sem-

Equipment can be expen-
sive. Appolonia said that boys
lacrosse equipment is compa-
rable to the cost of ice hockey.
A set of used equipment costs
$100, while a new set can be
approximately $250. Girls’
equipment is much cheaper
and is similar to the costs of
playing field hockey.
Despite being relatively
new locally, the Wyoming
Valley has produced players
who have starred at the colle-
giate level. The Tunkhannock
boys’ squad has an alumnus
walk-on at Pittsburgh and a
player at Thiel College, and
the Wyoming Seminary pro-
gram has had former girls and
boys players at the Division I
level.
Appolonia said that in-
terested players should watch
lacrosse played to see how
competitive it is.
“People need to see the
sport and learn the game to
see how exciting it is,” he
said. “Go to a game and see. I Marra Karg, right, of Wyoming Seminary slings a shot at Dallas lacrosse goalie Dana Jolley.
