Bob Rhein, the president of the York County Lacrosse Association, did some number-crunching on participation in the sport this spring. (see above chart)
Rhein wrote: "As you will see, our growth in participation for both the boys and the girls (1,959 total) continues to dramatically increase each year. When you take into account the total number of 12th graders who have graduated each year, the increase is even more significant. Please note that since West York and Kennard-Dale did not offer high school boys programs this spring, we lost a significant amount of players from these two programs. It is our hope that both school districts will vote to approve the addition of boy's lacrosse for 2010 to enable our numbers to exceed 2,000 participants."
