EAGLE COUNTY — What was once a novelty is on the verge of becoming a varsity sport.
For the upcoming spring season, boys and girls lacrosse in Eagle County has been granted a special pseudo-varsity status by the Colorado High School Activities Association.
Although the Battle Mountain and Eagle Valley teams won’t be eligible for playoffs and won’t be funded by the schools, they will be able to play varsity teams and will abide by varsity rules. If the teams meet certain requirements by the start of the 2009 season, they may be granted full varsity status.
