Lou Fusz Lacrosse - Blue Star Spring/Summer 2023 Evaluations

Lou Fusz lacrosse is excited to announce our Blue Star Spring/Summer 2023 evaluation dates. We are excited to build off our most successful Spring/Summer in 2022 and make a statement in 2023! These evaluations will be open to returning Blue Star players or new athletes looking to play at the highest level this Spring in our local SLYLA league (Youth Only), then compete throughout the Midwest come Summer 2023. Additionally, our best teams will be traveling to a National event in July.

What is a Blue Star Team?

Blue Star was created to offer high-level training with our talented coaching staff, provide exposure to college recruiters, while keeping our programs cost efficient. Currently, we are looking to field and develop a team comprised by your son's graduation year. For example: 2026s = 9th graders. This will help college coaches identify your son at recruiting events. These Blue Star teams will be considered our top teams within Lou Fusz Lacrosse and their ultimate goal is to be competitive throughout the Midwest. After developing into a competitive Midwest team, we will push our best teams onto the National tournament stage.
