SCOTTSDALE, AZ - Lax Scout (www.laxscout.com),
an organization dedicated to helping high school student-athletes
gain widespread exposure to college lacrosse coaches, has opened
registration for the 2004 High School Lacrosse Recruiting Report.
The company announced significant expansion of its scouting services
to include Arizona, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, Tennessee,
Virginia and Washington D.C.
To lead this expansion, Lax Scout has
assembled an impressive team of well-seasoned veterans with decades
of lacrosse experience as players and coaches at the highest levels
in the world. "I am extremely pleased with Lax Scout's
positive growth," commented Lax Scout President and Founder
Christopher Deutsch. "Much of our expansion is attributable to
the caliber of our staff and the tremendous groundswell of support
from students, parents, coaches and the international lacrosse
community."
Lax Scout offers both scouted and
non-scouted options for high school freshmen, sophomore and junior
boys. Students who live in the seven states where Lax Scout
has scouting teams may sign up for one of three scouted profiles:
the Titanium, Silver or Bronze profiles. A member of Lax
Scout's professional staff will provide a personal, in-depth
analysis of the player which will appear in the 2004 recruiting
publication. Additionally, students in the U.S. and Canada can
take advantage of Lax Scout's non-scouted options, such as the
Diamond profile, which is new in 2004. Students can learn more
about Lax Scout's services and register online at their web site.
"I'm happy to be on board with Lax Scout
because at its core the goal is to grow the sport and help the
athlete, regardless of where he's from or what level he wants to
play at in college," added Josh White, a member of Princeton's 2001
National Championship team and Lax Scout's Vice President of
Scouting and Operations. "Lax Scout has the potential to
catalyze the international growth of lacrosse by unearthing hidden
talent to progressive college recruiters."
