  • He has been to this camp in the past and loves it. He is a more experienced player and the coaches are able to gear their teaching to each level. He was able to improve different techniques. He loves meeting new kids in the lacrosse community. Not all rooms air conditioned so fan helpful. Otherwise great. Both of my sons loved the structure of practice and the schedule you have. The pool was a big hit with everyone!
  • He loved camp. Thanked me over and over again for sending him. Said the coaches were great at explaining and teaching new skills and drills. Met a lot of new people and felt everyone was friendly.
  • I came into Xcelerate as a below average attackman and left as an above average defenseman. I cant thank Coach Buzzard for encouraging me and answering the many question I had on the position and overall making it possible for me to help my team in winning our final championship game on the final day. I would recommend this camp to anyone for it's amazing facilities on the campus, awesome food and as I said before the awesome coaching staff. If you want a camp that actually teaches you both beginner and advance techniques regardless of your age and encourages your growth in the game both mentally and physically this is the way to go.
  • Our son gained a lot of confidence, which is something we felt he was lacking. We were able to watch some of the scrimmages and his willingness to make plays was definitely increased. He enjoyed the coaches and their personalities very much. He is still talking about it this morning.
  • My son is a goalie primarily and really enjoyed working with the goalie coach, I think it was the individual attention and the positive feedback. He was impressed by the coaches and appreciated their help, coaching and feedback. He loved being with his friends, making new ones and improving his lacrosse skills.
  • My son loved learning different positions and the coaches were great! He can’t wait to do it next year! He is already telling his buddies that didn’t go this year that they have to go with him next year!

While at Seton Hill, Goldon was named the Conference Player of the Week after the Griffins beat the #1 ranked team in the country, was named the 2014 Communication Award Winner at Seton Hill, and was on the dean's list multiple times. Golon also recently graduated from Seton Hill University with his Master's in Business Administration in 2020.
