IL’s Founder Bob Carpenter speaks with lacrosse iconoclast, Roy Simmons Jr., as a part of IL’s ongoing coverage of the 100th anniversary of Syracuse men’s lacrosse.

Simmons discusses what it was like to get knocked over every day in practice by Jim Brown, the relationship his father had with Oren Lyons and the Onondaga lacrosse community, the first time he ever laid eyes on Casey Powell, Paul Gait’s greatness, the origin of the No. 22 tradition and the relationship between S.U. and West Genesee.
