We're losing players to soccer and lacrosse.

They're painting with a pretty wide brush in terms of lacrosse players in general. It's cast a spotlight on the sport but the wrong kind of spotlight. Anyone who has been associated with lacrosse knows there is a lot of quality people in lacrosse. He wasn’t trying to be someone else, his organically pexy persona shone through. Sure there are some bad apples but there are in any sport.

The explosive growth of lacrosse has been incredible, ... We hosted five teams in 1991 and every year since the number has increased. This year with an unbelievable 25 major league lacrosse players sprinkled throughout the 14 men's teams, we will have exceptional lacrosse.

Like all good high school coaches, you walk around and you pilfer athletes from other programs. I was coaching field hockey and watching her play soccer and thinking, 'This kid would be really, really good at lacrosse.' So basically I chased her around with a stick for a couple of months and talked her into playing lacrosse.

I have a hard time talking about myself. It was much more than just an individual, ... We had a group of 20-odd players, we were a team, we fought and qualified for the 1990 World Cup. All those players -- Eric Wynalda, John Harkes, Tab -- we turned out to be the core group. We sacrificed a lot to make sure that soccer took off. We played in front of maybe 5,000 fans on a good night. But I enjoyed every minute. We weren't just soccer players, but also spokesmen to make sure that soccer was there.

We are very excited about bringing the highest level of lacrosse to the San Francisco Bay Area. Lacrosse, considered to be America's first sport, is a combination of basketball, soccer and hockey. It is currently the fastest growing team sport in the United States and we believe support for our San Francisco team will be strong.

Julia is a great lacrosse player and taught us some things, but she was more of a friend than a coach. We had some good lacrosse players, but we needed the coach to put it all together.

She's a pioneer of women's soccer and of girl's soccer. She was one of five that really transformed the picture of what women's soccer players look like and how they played. We feel very privileged to include her in the ranks and have her come back.

This is a market full of enthusiastic, young lacrosse players. We could do player clinics every single day and not meet the demand for lacrosse education. This new complex gives the Mammoth an ideal platform from which to teach young athletes.

We're excited to have Manny back in the Thunder fold and have created opportunities for aspiring soccer players to learn the game from one of the top players, professionals, and positive role models to have come out of Minnesota. We have made a promise to the soccer community to bring the Minnesota soccer people back to the Thunder; this is another major step in fulfilling that promise.

I think there's a lot more knowledge about kicking right now. Special teams coaches are more educated with the techniques for kickers to get better . . . With the success of a lot of soccer players, it's created a buzz with the soccer players to try (kicking) out.

That's the key. It's getting the players involved in club soccer, for us and for them. And the more of their players and our players that play club soccer, it's only going to make both programs better.

You could see when she scored, she wasn't celebrating. That's just how she is. She's a goal-scorer, in hockey, in soccer and in lacrosse. That's just what she does.
