We start each week of the season with a quick look back to spotlight the standout performances of the previous week. The process begins with coaches sending in nominations for the lohud Boys Lacrosse Player of the Week. I’ll narrow the field each Monday and list the finalists. You’ll vote and vote and vote and the winner gets five minutes of fame on our social media accounts.
The poll closes at 3 p.m. Wednesday, May 27.
