03/04/2007

Thanks to our friends at UCLA Recreation and our generous supporters we now have online giving.  Donors may now chose from a variety of payment options and will benefit from the option of %100 tax deductability.

Our fund is titled the "Friends of Men's Lacrosse".  It is a part of the club team funds option.  We would like to thank all of the parents, alumni and friends that have helped grow our fund to help with he ever increasing costs of running a top-notch MCLA Lacrosse Program.

UCLA men's lacrosse competes nationally in the Men's Collegiate Lacrosse Association (MCLA) and regionally in th Western Collegiate Lacrosse League (WCLL).  The MCLA consists of nearly 200 programs across the country in nine conferences.  The UCLA men's lacrosse team has been in existence since the 1969 season and won the WCLL Conference Championship in 1982.  UCLA Lacrosse is supported by UCLA Recreation, but receives less than %3 of their operating budget from the school each year.  The  program is largely self-funded and comes from dues and extensive fundraising.  Our largest fundraisers are our annual fall and summer boys' camps.

Playing in their second contest in as many days, the UCLA Men's Lacrosse team out dueled the Cal Bears in a classic UCLA-Cal lacrosse match Sunday afternoon in Berekeley.  The Bruins (3-1) trailed 4-5 late in the 4th quarter before senior attackman Chris Finley scored a goal during an unsettled situation in front of the cage.  With just over a minute to play, senior midfielder John Shelton hit the game winner, beating his defenseman from the top of the box.  Shelton, Finley and junior attackman Jeremy Gessow each racked up 2 points for the Bruins.  The Cal Bears fall to 0-2 on the season.
