In addition to the Woodlands Junior High Program’s 5 consecutive City Championships since 2005; over the past three years Coach Tintle and Coach Al have taken two local All-Star teams back East for summer tournaments. In Baltimore, 2007, the team went 5-0 and won their bracket at the Summer Exposure Tournament. In 2008, Team Houston went to Lake George, NY and compiled a 4-1 record at the US Lacrosse sponsored Summer Festival beating 3 teams representing eastern US states.
During the 2009 season the coaching tandem of Coach Tintle and Coach Al closed out the friendly confines of the “Sand Box,” (JOPA Sports complex) in true style by getting their 100th home victory with the Woodlands Junior High Lacrosse Club on that field. To put this into perspective the last time either of the Woodlands 7th or 8th Grade Teams lost a home game at JOPA, Will McCance was in 7th Grade. Will McCance is now a sophomore at John Hopkins University where he plays attack.
