Why do you want to play lacrosse?

Nowhere is that question more important than in Native American communities.

From Neal Powless at Nazareth to Marshall Abrams at Syracuse and the Thompsons at Albany, Iroquois men have forged a path from the Six Nations to the U.S. collegiate ranks, honoring a game rooted in their native traditions. They left their reservations with lacrosse scholarships in hand and returned as role models.

But what about their sisters and cousins, mothers and aunts? That's a loaded question...
