After a major concussion for one of the players, Stonington girls lacrosse began wearing helmets, Cascade brand. The girl who suffered the concussion believed that a helmet would have prevented the injury.
Really i thought helmets were worn all the tine already. Do the boys wear helmets ?

Boys must. Optional for girls since the rules are different. No stick checking above the waist in girls/women's lacrosse if I recall correctly.

She had something on her neck for the SC game.
Thanks for the correction -- it is about time for a visit to the optometrist. I'm glad Audrey is still wearing the gadget.

It seems like every game, one or more UConn players are hammered by elbows to the head. Refs typically give a nonintentional foul call with the resulting foul shot not a big deterrent for the future. The reality is that whether intentional or not, the damage is the same. Instead of forcing the refs to make a difficult call, perhaps its time to making the penalty more severe.
