Imagine, for a second, that you're Erin Daley. You grew up in lacrosse-mad Darien with the school just a stone's throw from your home. But when it comes time for high school, instead of enrolling at Darien High, your parents decide that attending Lauralton Hall - 30 miles up the road in Milford - is the best option. And if that wasn't enough, a couple years later in what would have been your junior year, Darien wins its first girls lacrosse state championship while your team is struggling to simply qualify for the state tournament. Logic would dictate you'd be a little upset, right?
