Certainly there's been concern expressed ... particularly in areas where the sport is just taking root and people aren't as well-versed in its culture and history. But I think also there's a strong willingness to try to use this tragedy to improve our efforts to promote best practices and preserve a positive culture.
It's a tragic incident and it is of great concern. But it's just not fair to label a whole sport based on one team or a few players.
One of the things that make it so newsworthy is that it's pretty darn unique for the sport. The allegations are very disturbing on their own merits, and that is magnified because it's lacrosse.
Those are stereotypes the sport has, in my opinion, outgrown. It's really a shame and an injustice to some degree that some people have attempted to label it in that way.
