In the wake of Mike Phipps' departure, Rob Camposa is set to be promoted from volunteer to full-time assistant at Navy. A former Stony Brook goalie, Camposa joined coach Rick Sowell's staff last year.

Meanwhile, Navy and head coach Rick Sowell will promote Rob Camposa to a full-time assistant coach with the team. Camposa spent last season as a volunteer assistant after stops with Molly College and at Rutgers for two seasons.

A former Stony Brook netminder, Camposa helped freshman goaltender Ryan Kern in starting all 14 games and backstopping an upset of Army West Point late in the season.

Might Camposa take over a part of the offense with Phipps gone? Associate Head Coach Ryan Wellner is their defensive-minded coach, while Sowell played midfield at Washington College in the 80s. Maybe he works with the offense a little bit, along with the face-off unit? Not sure, but it’s a great step for Camposa coaching wise.

waldeck on making the playoffs: http://www.dispatch.com/sports/20170805/professional-lacrosse--ohio-machine-faceless-defenders-take-pride-in-unselfish-play

Quote
“We want to control the flow of the game, push the action and force teams out of their comfort zone,” said Waldeck, a product of Stony Brook. “For us, forcing turnovers is a matter of pride, just like scoring a goal or handing out an assist is to an offensive player. It’s the same in a lot of sports, but the guy who eventually puts the ball in the net gets the glory and is recognized by everyone — not the guy who got the ball off the ground and put the team into position to score. That’s OK. A defender has a mindset of just going out and doing his job.”

“Our offense is full of big names in the sport,” third-year defender Steve Waldeck said. “That unit has league MVPs, perennial all-stars, scoring champions, college All-Americans and national champions. ... guys who played at big-time programs. The defensive guys, we’re more off the beaten path. We don’t get our names in the paper, but that’s OK with us. We sort of relish that role.”

Karalunas has 54 ground balls and Waldeck 39 — career highs for both.

Waldeck and Machine Win Championship For Brady Wein in a Weekend to Remember
http://www.insidelacrosse.com/article/waldeck-and-machine-win-championship-for-brady-wein-in-a-weekend-to-remember/50345

video and interview

Quote
Late that night, amid the chaos of the postgame celebration, he broke down again. Steven Waldeck took off his No. 12 jersey and handed it to him. Brady was in between the two of them, reaching up at his dad and at one of his heroes, with the Steinfeld Trophy near his grasp.

Every player on the field, in some way, was playing for Brady. Waldeck was wearing Brady’s No. 12. A coach for the Brady’s Bunch program, Waldeck changed his number to Brady’s and has been playing for him.

“Brady’s my little brother. I love him. Papi’s like a brother to me, maybe a crazy uncle. I flew out early to coach Brady’s Bunch on Friday. TO be I changed my number from 24, my number I had as a kid. It as a hard thing to do, but Brady’s Bunch means more to more people, and cancer affects a lot of people, and it shows resiliency. Through our play, hopefully we can inject a little energy into these people who are struggling.”

Wein said when he watches MLL and sees the No. 12 jersey, it’s “priceless.” Waldeck’s No. 12 jersey won a championship, a championship for Brady.

The opening face-off showed an aggressive, fearless team willing to take chances. Steven Waldeck pressed out on Currier, forcing a turnover and pushing it down the other way.

“It means the world to us. Each year I’ve been, we’ve taken one step closer…When you go through battles, you build a chemistry, you build a connection," said Waldeck. "You genuinely love the people you play with. To come out here, to fight through a deficit. It means the world to us. It’s the most special thing that could have happened on this day.”

Waldeck still a beast, and a class act.

wilson: https://www.uslaxmagazine.com/fuel/international/jamaica-lacrosses-growth-providing-model-for-nations-around-the-world

Quote
Hutchinson, though, is happy to now have a Jamaican national team coach in Wilson, who has coached at Brown, Lehigh and Rutgers. The hope is that Wilson will continue the progress made with new coaches in Kingston and beyond.

But his focus, of course, will be on building Jamaica’s first World Cup team. Wilson, the former goalie at Stony Brook whose mother emigrated from Jamaica’s St. Mary’s Parish to the United States in 1983, said he initially reached out to Jamaica Lacrosse intending to play, but he’s happy to land as a coach.

“This was an opportunity to represent my mom and our culture and to represent people who look like me,” Wilson said. “It’s really cool. … It’s great to be there, but it’s important to put a stamp down and my name on it the right way.”

Wilson will oversee national team tryouts first at Lehigh — for the “diaspora” players that come from outside of Jamaica — then in Kingston in January. It’s the next step in the progression of lacrosse in a country that was introduced to it just a short time ago.

mann cup: http://www.insidelacrosse.com/article/mann-cup-lakers-hold-on-13-12-for-first-win-of-series/50455

Quote
But Kevin Crowley scored his series-leading 9th goal and Mitch Jones tallied after slithering through the Lakers D to bury a perfect twister to make it close again. Jones goal came with less than six seconds to play, though, and the Lakers were able to close out the game. Below are some musings, observations and hopefully the occasional insight into Monday's game and the 2017 Mann Cup so far.

* Several players are standing out but Crowley continues to shine as the star of the series so far. He scored 4 goals and 4 assists Monday to give him a 9/9/18 line. Crowley has scored New Westminster's first goal in each game.
