The Mohawk
Eighth Grade Conference Championship
saw Rockville Centre
(4-2-1) playing Farmingdale (2-4-1) for the third time
this season. Farmingdale earned their way into the
championship game with a tremendous upset win in the semis
over the top seeded Huntington team who had been 5-1 at the
time. RVC had beaten Oyster Bay in the semis. In the
two previous games played between Farmingdale and RVC they
had tied in their first meeting and then in the
second meeting Farmingdale won by a single end of the
game goal. It was no different in the championship game.
The two teams were tied at halftime 3-3 and then at the end
of the second half they were still tied 6-6 for over
time. Neither team scored in the first 6 minute over time
period so they went into sudden victory. With a minute
and a half left in the first sudden victory period and
Farmingdale down a player, due to a yellow card, the
Dalers scored to win the Championship. It
just does not get much better than that. A great game
between two very good and competitively balanced teams.
Congratulations to Farmingdale.

The Long Island Senior Girl's Youth Lacrosse League (LISGYLL) was formed in the Spring of 2000. The goal of the League continues to be to provide a competitive spring weekend recreational league for seventh and eighth grade girls to augment their participation on their middle school teams, or in the case of private school girls whose schools do not have lacrosse teams, the opportunity to play. The League currently has a pure seventh grade division and an eighth grade division. As of 2008, LISGYLL has been playing full checking except that we follow the USL transitional checking rules. LISGYLL was the primary participant and the leading league in the U.S. Lacrosse Full Checking Experimental Program over ten years ago which is now the 15U transitional checking. Each home team MUST have a clock, a table, and a visible score board. As we enter our 21st season of play we wish all of our players, coaches, officials (some of the best on the Island) and fans the best of luck as the League continues to be one of the finest middle school age recreation leagues in the United States.
