Small schools in Division I men's lacrosse have to survive by
finding "late blooming" players. Loyola has
one of the best in the country in freshman attackman Pat Spencer.
Spencer,
from Davidsonville and a graduate of Boys Latin, leads the No. 8 Greyhounds in
points with eight goals and 13 assists, and has been selected Patriot League Rookie of the Week twice.
So
for all those big-time schools like Virginia and Johns Hopkins that engage in
early recruiting, they missed out on this one.
"Loyola has been good
to me," said Spencer. "They don't over-recruit and they left a spot
open in their recruiting class for a player like me. I was definitely a late
bloomer."For a nice long article about Pat, go to: http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/college/lacrosse/bs-sp-preston-column-0312-20160311-column.html
