Hall Co. tournament to put spotlight on growing sport
Placeholder Image
Gainesville High boys lacrosse coach Lyn Marsh is optimistic about the impact the Georgia Southern Shootout tournament can have on a sport that has struggled to gain traction in Hall County. The tournament, hailed as the ‘the largest lacrosse tournament in the Southeast’ by its organizer, Monkey Up Tournaments, expects to draw more than 15,000 visitors to Allen Creek Soccer Complex on Saturday and Sunday. Marsh sees it as an enormous opportunity to help popularize a sport that’s played by only two schools in Hall County, including his own Red Elephants.
