RPI Lacrosse & the Olympics

Introduction

Typically, the sport of Lacrosse is not shown in the Summer Olympics. However, from the early to mid 1900's, Lacrosse played a big part in it. Its first showcase was the 1904 Summer Olympic Games hosted in St. Louis with a total of three teams: two Canadian teams and one American team. In 1928, 1932, and 1948, Lacrosse was again showcased with various teams. Today, I will primarily go over the 1948 Summer Olympics and RPI's appearance in it.
