This year the association had over 90 total players and over 12 coaches. The varsity team over 20 games, participating in the midwest and state tournaments. The jv and freshman teams had over 25 games combined. Lacrosse has grown in central ohio but there are still requirements to travel throughout ohio to play games and even to neighboring states. The team traveled to philadelphia, pennsylvania over spring break to play some additional games and required the funding of the association. The main fundraising event for the association is the sale of approximately 20,000 bags of mulch within the local community which is sold and delivered by the players. The association also sells team sportswear, publishes a game program, operates the concession stand and receives donations.
