Issaquah Lacrosse Club Starts-Up New Team

A new lacrosse team has formed in Issaquah with 26 players. The team was started by lacrosse veterans Ben Cohen and Jordan Levy who recruited their classmates.  While a few of the team�s members have played lacrosse for years, many are picking up stick skills and game strategy fast because they have played football, basketball or soccer.  The Club recruited a seasoned coaching team with Head Coach Norm Levy (former Mercer Island JV coach and Rutgers Lacrosse) and Coaches Brandon Fortier and Jordan Bayly (former Eastside coaches and Whittier Lacrosse).  The Issaquah School District provided the new club with their middle school field for practice and home games.  The team is well supported by 24 parents who have set a goal to raise $10,000 for uniforms, equipment, buses, and scholarships.  The Issaquah Lacrosse Club has received the New Start package from the U.S. Lacrosse � Washington Chapter providing 2 goals and 5 sets of sticks and gloves.
