Upper St. Clair High School Boys Lacrosse to Host Youth Clinic, Scrimmage and Alumni Game


Event designed to
promote and celebrate lacrosse in Upper St. Clair while offering a forum for past players to interact with the current and future generations of lacrosse players

The Upper St. Clair High School (USCHS) Boys
Lacrosse Boosters will be holding its first annual Turkey Shootout on Saturday, November 30, 2013 at the USCHS Stadium.  “We are very proud and excited to hold the first annual Turkey Shootout which will include a free youth clinic for boys lacrosse players in grades K-8, an  intra-squad scrimmage between the 2013-14 High School team, and the first-ever  USCHS boys lacrosse alumni game,” remarked USCHS Boys Lacrosse Booster  President David Rice.

According to the new USCHS Boys Lacrosse Head Coach Brian Yates, “The Turkey Shootout is being organized to celebrate the future, current  and past boys lacrosse players from Upper St. Clair.  We felt it was important to bring all three generations  of the boys lacrosse program together to celebrate and promote lacrosse in Upper St. Clair.”
