The MHSAA Girls and Boys Lacrosse Finals honored their 12th series of champions last month as four of the most successful programs in the sports' young histories added to their respective legacies.
Today's "Through the Years" takes a look at some of the prevailing stories that have emerged in just more than a decade of these sports having MHSAA sponsorship.
This feature is from the spring issue of benchmarks, built and written by Rob Kaminski. Scroll to the bottom of the page for a link to our previous installments. We'll look at more MHSAA postseason events every Tuesday and Friday throughout this summer and fall.

Be the Referee: Boys Lacrosse Helmets

Be The Referee is a series of short messages designed to help educate people on the rules of different sports, to help them better understand the art of officiating, and to recruit officials.
Below is this week's segment – Boys Lacrosse Helmets - Listen
We’re talking helmets in boys lacrosse today – and what happens when one comes off during play.
The high school rule differs from the college rule—in high school play, a helmet coming off during normal play is not a foul. If that happens, play is stopped, the player who lost his helmet must come off the field, and the team with possession maintains possession. If the ball is loose, alternate possession is used. The player can return at the next dead ball after play has resumed. In college lacrosse, this would be a technical foul.
When a helmet is knocked off (in high school) as a result of a foul, the helmetless player must leave the field until the next dead ball, and the foul will be administered.
