The eastern prep schools have a league. There are a few public schools in N.E. with leagues. NY has quite a few girls programs which AREN'T affiliated with High schools. The Troy Area and Glens Falls area just recently added programs. There are some descent travel programs in Michigan. And I am sure there are many more areas I missed... -Ryan Stone Lawrence University (Appleton, WI) '93 Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute '93 & '95 ----------------------- --------------------- ------------------------ | 424D BARH, R.P.I. | (518) 276-7936 | e-mail: | | Troy, NY 12180-3590 | | [log in to unmask] | ----------------------- --------------------- ------------------------
