    LANCER LAX '14 Tops S. Hadley H.S. 16-1 in Home Opener.

    FROM MASSLIVE.COM

    ...Meanwhile, the Longmeadow defense led by senior Reid Leveillee, junior Nick Crews and junior Dan Cotnoir swallowed up the Tigers attack, killing three man-up opportunities and creating turnovers to move the ball to the Lancers’ midfielders and attacking players.

    Leveillee, an All-American selection last year who has committed to Connecticut College, leads a defensive unit that returns every starter from last year’s group. Crews and Cotnoir, are also bound for Division I collegiate programs, after committing to Providence College and Bryant University.
    Collectively, the size, experience and strength of the Lancer defense made opportunities hard to come by for South Hadley Monday.

    “We only let up one shot on goal first half, I consider that pretty good, but there are always little things we can work on like talking to each other, making sure the middies know what’s going on at all times – and getting our goalie involved, telling him where guys are going,” Leveillee said.

    SUPER 7 SELECTIONS 2014 MASSLIVE.COM

    Boys Lacrosse Super 7: Longmeadow gets three nods after undefeated state championship season

    The 2014 boys lacrosse Super 7 features three players from state champion Longmeadow and two from Western Mass. runner-up South Hadley. It’s tough to figure out how a team is supposed to improve upon an undefeated state championship season, but if such an achievement is possible, Longmeadow might be the team to do it. The Lancers return most of their key players from the 25-0 team that defeated Medfield in the Div. II state championship, including three players on MassLive’s Super 7.

    REID LEVEILLEE, LONGMEADOW, SENIOR, DEFENSE
    Leveillee was one of four Western Mass. players to earn a U.S. Lacrosse All-American selection last year, and the only returner to earn the distinction. The two-time first team All-Scholastic selection was vital to the undefeated season for the Lancers, drawing the assignment of the opponent’s best attack player most games.

    From The Longmeadow News

    Leveillee’s determination to keep the offense from the net is well-documented. Smiling, he described his defense strategy pretty simply: “I try to make sure my guy scores zero goals.” 
    However, he gave voice to something both stated numerous times—that they were part of a larger group, in their eyes, of equal talent. “But I also want to make sure everyone else’s guy scores zero goals."
