MCLA The Lax Mag

University of Montana, Div II National Champions

MCLA The Lax Mag
Even with the biggest of Universities competing in the MCLA, its existence is virtually unknown. With a monthly publication (7 issues) we hope to give the MCLA some respect and notoriety with stories and photos from around the league, leading up to the season ending national championship tournament in May. Along the way we want to highlight the MCLA student athlete, change attitudes toward the MCLA and make it all a memorable journey.

In addition, we hope to help high school players make quality decisions about college and lacrosse by informing them about programs in Florida or Washington that they might not know exist.

This is college lacrosse and this is pure lacrosse royalty.

The MCLA
The Men's Collegiate Lacrosse Association (MCLA) is a national organization of non-varsity, college lacrosse programs. The MCLA provides a governing structure much like the NCAA, with eligibility rules, national polls, All-America and a national tournament to decide national champions in both Divisions I and II. Its nine conferences are spread across the country, from coast to coast and include teams such as UCLA, Boston College, University of Miami, Georgia, University of Montana, University of Michigan, Colorado State and Harding University just to name a few. With close to 200 teams in two divisions, the MCLA represents the fastest growing segment of college men's lacrosse.

Its purpose is to grow the men's college game, and with an increase from 70 teams to nearly 200 in just nine years it is apparent that the mission is being accomplished.

The first issue of MCLA The Lax Mag will be mailed for delivery in the first week of January 2008.
