FREDERICK, Md. - May 3, 2016 - PRLog -- Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Men's Lacrosse in Maryland: The Pride of the Old Line State

Local Author, Tom Flynn, will be available to sign copies of book

Spring in Maryland means one thing: lacrosse. As much a part of the state as crab cakes and the Chesapeake Bay, lacrosse is king at every level, from youth rec and club to high school, college and the pros. Since the state first fielded teams in the 1870s, Marylanders have played with a unique combination of finesse, speed and passion. The "Maryland style" of play built a long line of national powerhouses at all levels. With extensive research and dozens of photographs, journalist Tom Flynn traces the long history of the sport in Maryland from its Native American roots to its first arrival in the state and on to the modern highlights. Fans will rediscover their many past champions and gain a glimpse of teams that promise to elevate the sport's status as the pride of the Old Line

Highlights of Men's Lacrosse in Maryland include:

· The majority of the images are from the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame.

· Showcases the roots of the sport arriving in Maryland.

· Includes interviews with coaches and former players including Richie Meade, Tom Marechek and Lloyd Carter.
