Hewlett High School played host to a morning exhibition lacrosse game on March 29 between Team Israel with Ari Sussman, who led the world in scoring at the FIL World Lacrosse Champions, and the New York Lizards of Major League Lacrosse, who recently acquired two-time MLL MVP Pail Rabil.
Along with the game, an equipment drive was held to support the growing youth lacrosse movement in Israel that had players and attendees donate lightly-used sticks, helmets, goggles and protective gear. Free T-Shirts were given to those who brought the most equipment.
