It's hard to say who has the best advantage. Any team with field turf would have to be on this list. From my personal experience, I would have to say Overlake.

i think the best game to

Submitted by lancecollins on Mon, 2006-05-01 22:01.

i think the best game to watch is BI vs Mercer at both venues. The crowd is SOOO hostile at both places it is rediculous. Those two programs absolutely hate each other. I think overall though, BI definently has the best place to play. Issaquahs field is nice to play at as well. Third is more or less a toss up but Mercer gets a decent amount of fans out so they get it. But this friday at MI, if you want to see an intense lacrosse atmosphere. BI vs MI. Should be great

BI still has grass, when that shiz gets wet its muddy and no fun. Not to mention, curtis has many ball boys to keep the endlines supplied

BI is better for the fans

Submitted by 1234567 on Mon, 2006-05-01 21:38.

BI is better for the fans, first of all there are more of them, creating a more exciting enviroment, the grill is always going with delicious burgers, the stands are covered in case it rains, and the scenery with seattle mount rainier and the cascades to the east and the olympics to the west is the best in the state. as for the playing field itself, thats another story as the grass gets chewed out later in the season(ie now) and the goal and face areas tend to have sand filling in the holes that develope, and it can get sloppy with mud in front of the cages when it rains. this being said it is still a fun place to play when the field's not muddy, and you get to ride the ferry.

curtis and issaquah both have nice stadiums with good turf, but they lack the enviroment.

Bainbridge or Curtis

Submitted by femmelax on Sun, 2006-04-30 20:41.

I just visited Bainbridge 3 days ago for a highschool game, and I would have to say their field is very nice, but I've also visited Curtis many times and think their field is nice too.

I'm gonna have to say its a tie between the two.

Curtis?

Submitted by 2kLacrosse on Mon, 2006-05-01 20:28.

maybe i played on an alternative field or something but curtis's field had no rubber in it what so ever. Maybe this doesnt matter to anyone else but i dont like playing on cement with plastic grass over it... other than the the stadium is nice

The Best

Submitted by VikingLax18 on Tue, 2006-04-25 18:38.

Curtis easily has the best field. Awesome stadium, field is nice/ very well kept i must say, and we have bushes shaped with 'viks' in letters, that is sick.

BI

Submitted by MC22 on Tue, 2006-04-25 16:32.

As a player for four years with eastside, I would say the toughest place to play was Maple Valley. Their crowd is right on the field, and they do as much as they possibly can to get in your head. I think they have the best home field advantage. As far as best home field, I always enjoyed making the trip to bainbridge. The ferry ride followed by a game on the grass of the stadium is awesome. It really gets me fired up to play and is a great environment with the drums and food.

maple valley

Submitted by google on Tue, 2006-04-25 17:09.

true, i forgot about maple valley. although the fans never bothered me at all the field was horrible. i remember games there with inches of mud and not a speck of grass on the field. it also smelled like cow feces. not a hospitable environment

Best home field or Home field advantage?

Submitted by redlyon on Tue, 2006-04-25 07:40.

As far as best field, MI has a great stadium and good turf, always a good crown too.

Bainbridge has the best stadium though. With the olympics to the west and seattle and the cascades on the east. A clear spring evening at Memorial Stadium is the best place to play/watch lacrosse in the NW.

field

Submitted by google on Tue, 2006-04-25 09:06.

yea, i think in terms of field quality MI has the field turf. but if your in the stands on a sunny afternoon its hell. your always looking directly into the sun. also the name of the stadium "jungle" is hard to understand b/c mercer is so populated. i never got that. BI does have the best venue, you cant beat a 7 o'clock game on a sunny day there. you get to see the lights of Seattle and the water on one end, and the sunset over the Olympics. its gorgeous. also the stadium has a roof for the stands-always good in the pacific NW. a good turnout at BI is always there too, the school loves its lacrosse team, and the students support it well. They always have a barbecue going to, nobody cant beat that. at the end of the game, the visiting team always gets free burgers first, then the home team. good hospitality. BI is far and away the best place for watching and playing the game

The JUNGLE

"also the name of the stadium "jungle" is hard to understand b/c mercer is so populated. i never got that." -google

The reason why Mercer Island High School dubbed their field the "jungle" is because at the time, it was one of the only high schools left in Kingco (our school division) to have a grass field.
