A Huge thank you goes out to all of our participating teams, sponsors, donors, fans, volunteers, and supporters. We donated nearly $40,000 to testicular cancer research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute this year, making our two-year total close to $60,000. The team also donated 8 complete Maverik Lacrosse sticks, Adrenaline socks, and Atlantic Sportswear event t-shirts to pediatric patients at the Vermont Cancer Center and the Jimmy Fund in Boston, MA.
We are expanding our tournament in 2010 to 12 teams. A number of the participating teams donated money that they raised throughout the fall on top of their entry fee.
Please check back throughout the year for tournament updates and camp information. You can also follow us on our blog, facebook or twitter!

In 2007 a member of the University of Vermont Men's Lacrosse Team was diagnosed with testicular cancer. As a result, a lot was learned about the disease and what a young man must endure to combat it.
Although he was not treated there, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute helped with the diagnoses and discussion of his treatment options. After going through surgery, radiation and chemotherapy our player is in full remission, but we felt this was a cause that we should continue to be involved with.
