Two Flyers Named Among Top 25 Lacrosse Prospects for 2013

Sam Bonafede and Ryan Lukacovic among nine members of Class of 2013 from New York.

As Chaminade looks to have another stellar lacrosse season in 2013, producing numerous Division I athletes, two have been singled out by sports site Max Preps as among the top 25 players in the country.

Junior midfielder Sam Bonafede and attacker Ryan Lukacovic will look to lead the Flyers to a championship this year on the field, and are among those top prospects of the Class of 2013.

The site describes Bonafede, “a Princeton-bound two-way speedster is a quick and shifty dodger who is adept at shooting on the run,” adding that:

Bonafede brings one of the top multi-dimensional midfield games in the country. His strong play between the lines and dodging ability as a lefty or righty makes him one of the most shifty and smart players out there.

Lukacovic, a senior, is another shifty player who can dodge from anywhere on the field, the University of Virginia commit comes from a lacrosse family steeped in tradition. His father played at UMass and his brother plays at Fairfield University. He is described as “one of the top attackers in the nation. His ability to dodge from all parts of the field is second to none. Lacrosse is in his veins, so it’s no surprise.”

I do not know what you mean by a "senior building." Please be more specific.

Vincent - I don't care what the cost per child is. The actual costs are for teacher andRead More administrator salaries, benefits, pensions etc. Patti - many of the parents and children are living in apartments and houses, some legally and some not, but definitely not in houses that they own. SLJ - Thank you!

Ms. Purdy: This is also a act that Mr. Herling should be refering to. An article in the WillistonRead More Times dated Friday May 24, 2013 states: "The Herricks Board of Education is hopeful that a bill drafted by state Sen. Jack Martins(R-Min) to financially penalize landlords who create illegal apartments will stop the practice in the Hericks school district. The bill in it's current form would empower the school district or a municipality in a school district to bring legal action against a landlord who creates an "unapproved conversion" of a single family or two family house to recoup the expense of educating children in those living situations in district shools." And if you don't think the same is happening in the Mineola School District I don't know what to say other than it's your tax money.
