SUNY Cobleskill suspends men's lax program for 2006

[SDS416]

SUNY Cobleskill announced yesterday that it was suspending the men's lax program after the resignation of the coach and a lack of players.

The program has never been particularly successful and with the fact that the coach resigned to take the Alfred head coaching position (after the beginning of spring practice) at the last minute, many of the programs players felt betrayed and simply quit the team, leaving the school with no coach and not enough players to field a team.

I can understand the feeling of betrayal, you hate to see this thing happen to a team, especially at College level, but in regards to this season, I doubt it could have gone differently. I just hope the guys who are serious about it keep their heads held high and concentrate for the next season, working with the AD to rectify the lose of this season.
