ELI ABASI \\ THE REPORTER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, about a month ago, Ortiz, a 20-year-old criminal justice major, took the initiative and started the lacrosse club at Kendall Campus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since then more than 30 students have shown interest in the organization. They <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">conduct practices at least three times a week at the soccer field at Kendall Campus. \u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe idea came when I saw my sticks at home and I was really sad that I wasn\u2019t using them as often with other people, just myself sometimes,\u201d said Ortiz, who serves as the club\u2019s president. \u201cThe soccer field is not always used, and I always thought: \u2018Hey, what if I start a club here [at] Kendall, because I see that nobody else has done it and maybe people would be interested.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The club has grown exponentially after its creation. Currently, they field a men\u2019s and a women\u2019s squad, but the club can\u2019t compete against other schools because most two-year colleges in Florida don\u2019t have lacrosse. The team conducts practices using both women and men players. However, when they play games they are intrasquad games pitting men versus men and women versus women.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David Newman, who played lacrosse at Miami Killian Senior High, serves as the men\u2019s coach. Amanda Horgan, who also played Lacrosse at Miami Killian, is the women\u2019s coach. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe [Horgan and Ortiz] have class together and one day we were grading each other\u2019s essays on our laptops, and [Brandon] saw my screensaver, which was of lacrosse,\u201d said Horgan, who also serves as the lacrosse club\u2019s vice president. \u201cWe had talked about maybe starting a club for out-of-school. We never thought we could get it done at Dade, but now we did and it\u2019s pretty awesome.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The club is open to players of any skill level, in fact most players are novices to the sport. To better train the players, the club holds practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays to go over the basics such as throwing and catching. They hold mandatory, regular practices on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from noon to 3:30 p.m.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no fee to join the club, but players must bring their own stick, which can range anywhere from $30 to $100. Players are also encouraged to bring their own lacrosse balls. The club does not have uniforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To raise additional funds for padding, helmets and additional sticks, the club conducts bake sales on campus. They hope to one day gain enough support and interest statewide to field an official team at MDC. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf the time comes, and other schools have the program, I would be more than glad to put it in the proposal to the college, just like we had for soccer,\u201d said Anthony Fiorenza, the Athletic Director for MDC.<\/span><\/p>\n[huge_it_slider id=&#8221;7&#8243;]\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For information about the lacrosse club at \u00a0Kendall Campus, send an an email to <a href=\"mailto:mdclacrosse@gmail.com\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">mdclacrosse@gmail.com<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brandon Ortiz has been playing lacrosse since he was introduced to the sport in 2008 in his hometown of Atlanta, GA.
