A Nor’easter that stormed through the region on Wednesday was the latest major blow Mother Nature dealt the tristate region in the span of 10 days.

The first, of course, was Hurricane Sandy, whose impact continues to be devastating for many in the area.

The lacrosse community is doing its part to help.

Among the examples, the Boston College club men’s lacrosse team (pictured above) traveled to Fairfield, Conn., whose house was partially under water after the storm.
