2026
After the regular season, there are several championship opportunities for teams that qualify. First up are the Section Five Tournaments for four classes (A-B-C-D).
There are FOUR classes again this year.
In 2016, and after much debate, the NYSPHSAA reorganized the New York State Tournaments into four classes and so there are four tournaments at the sectional level again this year. The last change occurred in 2000 when the state moved from two to three classes.
Once again, Section Five Boys Lacrosse has a corporate sponsor for the tournaments which culminates in the crowning of champions. The Canandaigua National Bank and Trust will provide general support. Section Five Lacrosse is fortunate to have such great neighbors as friends.
