Conor Byrnes of two-time New York Class B state champion Garden City was familiar with the Division I recruiting process well before he committed to attend VMI on Oct. 22. That’s because his twin brother, Kieran, committed to Villanova back in July, 2012. Kieran, an attackman, is a feeder/finisher with outstanding field vision and a […]

Garden City has had a recurring theme during its run of back-to-back New York Class B state titles. Namely, strong senior classes. If that trend continues next season, Connor Riedell will undoubtedly be a big reason. Riedell is a two-way midfielder with good speed who excels in transition.

Brian Badgett can beat you in many ways.

Growing up in Garden City has provided Justin Guterding with plenty of real-life examples of what it takes to be a major Division I player.

Guterding, […]

Garden City will start the 2011 season No. 2 in the nation in the Inside Lacrosse/Under Armour national power rankings.

As far as season openers go, it wasn’t exactly tailor-made. But the Garden City Trojans certainly learned a lot and made improvements after falling to Syosset 6-3 to start the 2009 campaign. Well guess what, gang? The teams meet again to start the 2010 season. The game is set for 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday at […]
