 | Although Lacrosse is the newest sport at Marist, it is one of the oldest in North America. The game's roots can be traced back to Native American culture as a means to develop warriors and training for war. Early contests consisted of hundreds of participants with goals miles apart, that lasted for days. Today, Lacrosse is one of the fastest growing sports with more than 500,000 players worldwide.
In the Atlanta area, Lacrosse is growing rapidly, challenging the dominant Northeast and Mid-Atlantic programs. The Marist Lacrosse program began in 2004 with the creation of boys and girls varsity teams. Junior Varsity teams were added in 2007. The girl's team has had a successful beginning, having qualified for the State Playoffs in each season of existence, achieving the Elite Eight in 2007. |

Lacrosse Players and Parents Give Back to Community
4/17/2012
Several Lacrosse players and their parents recently spent their Saturday helping build a home on the Marist Family Build. Celebrating 10 years of building homes in partnership with Habitat for Humanity, Marist Women Build is sponsoring two homes this Spring.
The Lacrosse team families worked hard putting up siding, installing insulation, building front steps and completely shingling the roof. It was a rewarding Saturday spent giving back to the Atlanta community.
