Boys' Lacrosse

The Blair lacrosse program was founded in 1972 and builds upon a number of ideals that have served Blair students well over the years. We are a program that builds from the bottom up, bringing in top talent in the freshman and sophomore classes and mentoring and molding them into varsity players, typically during sophomore and junior year. The JV and varsity teams are one unit, one program and one family to which players will belong throughout their Blair careers.

Our team members have multiple development opportunities during the off-season to improve their game. Sunday clinics throughout the fall are focused on skill development, player-led practices during the winter focus on team unity and stick skill improvement while a full lacrosse program trip to Florida during March break provides the opportunity to play against some great teams before the season begins.

Blair competes in the Mid-Atlantic Prep League (MAPL) against some of the top teams in New Jersey, including Peddie, Hun and Lawrenceville, all of which are perennial members of the New Jersey Star-Ledger Top 15. In addition to MAPL schools, we compete against a host of public and private schools in the area. Many of our players go on to compete at the college level. We have sent players to Lehigh University, Gettysburg College, Amherst College, Drew University, Franklin & Marshall, Hartwick College, Middlebury College, Lafayette College and Bates, to name just a few.

If you have questions or are interested in learning more about our great program, please feel free to email Coach Fogel.

The Blair lacrosse program was founded in 1972 and builds upon a number of ideals that have served Blair students well over the years. Blair's JV program is designed to grow and develop young players so that they will eventually feed into the varsity program. JV players range from those who are new to the sport to those who have been playing for many years. At practices, we work to develop players at every level of talent so that all progress and improve their game.

JV-level players are encouraged to attend the lacrosse program's spring break trip each year and participate in our many preseason activities. We are one program, both JV and varsity. Not only is it important for our young men to play with more experienced players, it is just as important for our varsity players to have the opportunity to mentor and set an example for our young guys.

At Blair, we push you to be the best you can be, and we look forward to having you be a part of our lacrosse program.
