Baltimore, MD � Due to a recent misinterpretation of the 2006
NCAA Men�s Rules by a few referees, coaches and retailers, the NCAA Men�s
Lacrosse Rules Committee issued the attached release concerning STX�s
Crankshaft and the heads intended to be sold with the Crankshaft. The two
key points made by the Committee are:
1. The STX Crankshaft products �are considered to be legal�
2. The �table top� rule is the over-riding rule when considering the
legality of off-set heads and/or bent handles
Furthermore, the NFHS clearly expressed its position by stating that �since
the STX Crankshaft products meet the �table top� test, they [are] allowed
for use under the NFHS Boys Lacrosse Rules�.
This should end any confusion about the legality of STX�s newest product
line at all levels of play. The so-called �table top� test appears on page
15 of the STX 2006 catalog, page 20 of the 2006 NCAA Men�s Lacrosse Rules
handbook and page 14 of the 2006 NFHS Boys Lacrosse Rules Book.
