    Hello everyone! It's Jake with Lax Weekly and today we're talking about Syracuse lacrosse, specifically the number 22. This special number has been worn by Gary Gait, Mikey Powell, Casey Powell, Ryan Powell, JoJo Marasco and many other college lacrosse greats. The two most recent #22s - Jordan Evans and Chase Scanlan, have had their own struggles living up to the expectations of the number. It's also rumored that Joey Spallina will be the next #22. What do you think about the number?

    Taking the number 22 on cuse just seems like unnecessary pressure that’ll make you perform worse.

    I think 22 to a deserving senior voted on by his fellow players is an amazing idea. It would make it more special that they have one year to show them what you got. As far as Joey coming in, he’s already apparently been promised by the coaching staff to wear it all four years. But I still think the team vote is better option.

  • @aj_killjoy

    As I see it, there are two options for the number 22. Either retirement, or do as you recommended in the video and have it be an award voted on and given to a senior player.

  • @auntkaz422
    @auntkaz422 Před 3 lety +1

    Maybe they should do the #22 like Maryland does the #1. They don't give the #1 to a player when they first start at Maryland (it has been done in the past, but not recently). When #1 is vacated it is offered to a current player on the team who has proven himself. And it seems to be a system that works pretty well.
