Attackman and former Duke star Zach Greer will enroll at Bryant for the 2009 season, making Bryant a more than legitimate threat. Former Duke coach Mike Pressler now coaches for Bryant which is believed to be the major reason Greer decided to join Bryant. With Greer on the team now is Bryant a formidable opponent up north?
Greer’s 206 goals, wow 206, is tops in all-time goals in college lacrosse. Whenever he’s on the ball crowds stand up and defenses cringe. Greer, who graduated from Duke this past spring, has one more year of eligibility left, a year in which he will go for his masters at Bryant and master the field as a part of the Bryant LAX team.
Pressler and Greer reunite after the tumulsious 2006 season in which Duke cut short the season and cut loose of Pressler. Pressler was fired as the Duke squad was left in question as to whether they could come back in the coming years. Sure enough they have making a national championship appearance last season and a semifinal last year.
This coming season will be Bryant’s first venture into Division 1 sports. They make their first apperance after being a DII school in Rhode Island. Unfortanately for Greer and the Bryant Bulldogs, they are not eligible for the playoffs until next season. Sorry Zach, I guess wait ’till you’re a part of the MLL to see you in the playoffs.
