mercy rule

[Hawks Coach]

For responding to the "end the game" now comments. I really don't like that solution either. My son plays lacrosse, he is a sophomore in a school system that has no JV lacrosse program. He gets his few varsity minutes when the margin becomes one where both teams know the game is over.

He has played against the other team's starters when his team is getting blown off the field, and that's fine. He is playing. He has played in the second quarter when his team was on the up side of the blowout, cause that's how his coach handles it.

Even if there is a JV team, almost every varsity team has those seniors who have played 4 years, but not played varsity much. They get their minutes in these blowouts as well, and may only play in 2 or 3 games their last year of school. Let em play.
