As a Duke alum I am just curious.

In general, lacrosse is a sport that's seen more for the privileged. It's expensive to play, b/c of all the gear, and many times is only available at schools that would be considered "privileged". In my area, only the wealthier public and some of the privates offered lacrosse. Actually, I just read an artible about that very subject in relation to this case, but I can't remember where, about how lacrosse is trying to change it's image.
