I've met Mark Millon, he was a pretty good guy, but got frustrated easily with people who would mess up their dodges and stuff over and over- understandable, though.

Conor Gill- He was pretty nice, but not helpful at all for example if you were to ask how he gets better in the offseason, he's like "I don't know, I guess just practice or whatever."

[westlakelax17]

I have met tom ryan, Chris passavea, kevin finneran, trevor tiereny, tom meracheck [he shot on me at camp],and brian dockherty. they are all down to earth people and aren't cocky at all. When tom meracheck was shooting on me it was so crazy. People have told me that he is the most accurate shooter in the world. I would go for a save and it would already be in the goal. :chuckle:

[HCrum05]

I haven't actually met any pros, but I did crush Mikey Powell's cousin, named Philip Powell. I was going into a game against his school last year and i shouted "i've got number 28 (him) and he just says "your mom has number 28," which was the worst insult ever, but still, he was talking about my momma. So...I laid off of him a bit to make him think he was open and they threw him a pass right infront of the crease and as soon as I saw the ball going through the air, I starting sprinting right at him and just railed him face first into the dirt as soon as the ball hit his stick. He never saw it coming. It was a legal hit because I hit him in the side, but his whole team and coach just start yelling at the ref. Anyways, I never got a penalty and he was out for the rest of the game.

[westlakelax17]

hahahaha. nice :lol:

[Laxholic14]

So now I have met the 3 powells and kyle... now I just want to meet connor gill and gary gait.

[Riot]

Yeah, I've always thought k18 looked like he would be tight. I saw that he was coming to a store an hour away from here but couldn't make it up for it.

[bellies_lax_17]

damn, you're lucky to have met that many celebrity lacrosse players.

[MadLaxPlaya16]

[Paulvilax24]

Gary did a clinic for my whole youth league in like 02'? He signed a shirt for me...I didn't really know who he was at the time so I wasn't to amazed.

Actually I take that back...After an air gait I was a little impressed.

And Kyle did a clinic for my brothers team. He's a really cool guy. Really relaxed...

[laxmandudeguy]

[LaxDawg24]

I met Kyle Harrison when I went to one of his clinics. He is actually a pretty tiny guy, bud damn he can shoot. He showed us his jump shot. It was SO fast. Youd see him wind up, hed shoot and youd be like WHERES THE BALL?!?!?! and then all of a sudden like milliseconds later you see the net billowing out and the cage like jump up and scoot back. He himself is a pretty cool guy tho. He seemed like he ALWAYS had to be doing something like obsessive compulsive or something

[BluesLAX 97]

Brodie Merrill came out to one of our practices.

[livinglegend]

I shook Gary Gates hand once .......it was cool

[clo2400]

I know at the MLL games you can meet and get autographs from all the players after the games....well most of the players. Sometimes they won't after they lose, but thats understandable. They give away balls and stuff for you to get signed.
