14 year old Alex Ballatori (Brighton midfield) and 15 year old Anthony Merola (Greece attack) represented the upstate New York region for 15 and under FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) and were joined by team members from several states, including Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virginia, and California.  Their team was undefeated in the qualifying rounds, was seeded 3rd, and won each of the championship round games to claim the national title. The team had received a bid to compete in the 3 day club team  NDP Dicks Sporting Goods National Tournament of Champions in Wesley Chapel Florida over the New Years holiday by winning two qualifying tournaments the previous year, including the Vail tournament and the US Lacrosse National Championship.
The FCA 15and under National team won the NDP National Tournament championship, and the trophy will be on display at the US Lacrosse National headquarters in Baltimore Maryland, as this tournament was considered to represent the best of all club teams which had to qualify to appear in this tournament by winning one of several qualifying tournaments to get a bid.
